Augustine and Culture Seminar

Signature to the ÃÞ»¨ÌÇÖ±²¥ undergraduate experience, the Augustine and Culture Seminar (ACS), is a two-semester, first-year course grounded in the Augustinian and Catholic intellectual traditions. ACS is designed to prepare you for success at ÃÞ»¨ÌÇÖ±²¥ and beyond while challenging you to explore big questions, think deeply, and listen generously.

"I loved my ACS class. It was a really great way for me to not only get situated in discussion-based classes, but also the ability to grow as a poignant writer. I really appreciated how tight-knit we became as a class." 

— Michael Whaley, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences
