In the Liberal Arts and Sciences Program, education is transformed from a means into a goal; we are guided by our own choice. It is important for me to think critically and in every single moment detect my own interest, hear my inner voice, and look at the present with my own eyes. Otherwise, we risk turning life into constant preparation for an abstract future. It is precisely this approach, based on internal interest and not imposed by a program, that is especially relevant for me today.
