CMRS 300

The Director’s colloquy is a non-credit course that ensures Students and Director are in regular communication as a community of scholars. The colloquy is designed to support student success in the completion of their degree and future career path. Three meetings of two hours each will be held over the semester. Each meeting will be focussed on different aspects of scholarly preparedness and post-degree career planning. Topics include successful research and writing strategies, meeting graduates of the program and learning about their post-degree employment experiences, planning for post-graduate life, whether it be joining the workforce or further education in professional programs. Students will meet our USask research librarians, successful CMRS graduates (published writers, managers, teachers, lawyers, professors, administrators, archivists, museum directors, theatre directors), and will take part in facilitated discussions on how to use their humanist education to create a meaningful life in a challenging world.
