Thoreau College is excited to announce our new semester program, for young people ages 18-25, to front their own essential facts of life, engaging the existential questions of our time through thoughtful study of great books and natural phenomena, practical labor, immersive wilderness expeditions, community self-governance, inner development, and artistic practice. Our first semester program will run this August to December 2019, with applications due MAY 1st!

The curriculum of the Thoreau College Semester Program will be a tapestry woven of five different interlocking strands embracing the full range of human experience, laid over the natural contours of the seasons as they transition from summer, through autumn, and into winter.  Each strand will be interdisciplinary in nature and integrated coherently into the program as a whole and each will involve work with a variety of different local and visiting faculty. These strands will focus on the study of great books and natural phenomena, community self-governance and inner development, manual labor and practical skills, artistic practice, and wilderness group and solo expeditions.
