Academic Life

50's studentsThis section aims to tell you the facts of academic life here. It's not just about the mechanics of choosing courses and navigating the system. It's about taking advantage of the vast intellectual resources of the University. On a campus full of people genuinely interested in learning, intellectual life is much more than the curriculum. You want to make the most of your time here, and that means finding the things that matter to you, finding the students and faculty members who share your interests, and joining the quest for knowledge.

For the Snark's a peculiar creature, that won't
Be caught in a commonplace way.
Do all that you know, and try all that you don't:
Not a chance must be wasted to-day!

Lewis Carroll,
"The Hunting of the Snark"
