Dinner-Seminars
Each semester we offer a half-dozen or so dinner-seminars with Georgia College professors or visiting scholars on a wide variety of topics. These informal, "learning beyond the classroom" experiences at a professor's home are designed to stimulate thought and discussion, and promote student-faculty interaction. Dinner-seminars are limited to 10-15 students depending on space. The Honors Program provides the dinner.
