FYE Conversations

2008: You and Your World


The purpose of the FYE Conversations Series:
To expose our students to timely, interesting, and scholarly information and expectations at the college level.
To give students opportunities to interact with the information in meaningful discussion with other interested persons outside the classroom.
These experiences will allow students to gain and comprehend information and to experience various applications of the information, which leads to analyzing and synthesizing the information. In addition, these sessions will provide experiences through which students can evaluate and assess their own and others' ideas.
These experiences and skills are the beginning of the students' education here at IPFW, and we hope they will be the basis for life-long learning.
