X1372: Harry Potter Goes to BC in Splash Fall 2015 (Nov. 15, 2015)
This class will explore Harry Potter from the perspective of a Boston College Student- especially through the "3 Be's" of a BC education: Be Attentive, Be Reflective, Be Loving. The class will be conversation- based, with a brief PowerPoint and a few video clips to help create themes that prompt dialogue. I hope this class will be full of great conversation, childhood nostalgia, a few good laughs, and most importantly, give you an appreciation for both Harry Potter and Boston College.


X1282: Harry Potter Goes to BC in Splash Spring 2015 (Mar. 29, 2015)
This class will explore Harry Potter from the perspective of a Boston College Student and the Jesuit ideals of education, which will delve into the moral and spiritual development of Harry through the lens of the Jesuit ideals:attentiveness, reflection, and love. The class will be conversation- based, with a brief PowerPoint and a few video clips to help create themes that prompt dialogue. I hope this class will be full of great conversation, childhood nostalgia, a few good laughs, and most importantly, give you an appreciation for both Harry Potter and Boston College.
