Free Quarterly Seminars: great thinkers on friendship. Learn more
“I live in a big city with a largely transient population. I don’t work in academia, though the thoughtful conversations of yore are still vital to me. In the past few years in Symposium’s (Zoom meetings), I’ve been so fortunate as to form four good friendships, friends that are difficult to find in live spaces! One is in the Boston area, another in the Baltimore area, one in the San Antonio area, and the last in Los Angeles. We communicate regularly, and if I ever got to their parts of the country, I would be very happy to invite any one of them to conversation over a long coffee, or meal, or walk.” -Reynaldo M.
“Excellent discussions, careful thinking.” -Michael S.
“I am grateful to all the serious people reading thoughtfully in both of my reading pathways. And being politely considerate of each other’s opinion though not afraid to voice even acutely divergent interpretations. I’ve also enjoyed how the Sappho reading pathway (Greek and Roman Lyric poetry) sometimes probe and speculate beyond the immediate confines of the text, which help make sense of the fragmentary nature of the poetry.” – APJ
“I have most enjoyed the observations of the group members about this text, and the challenge of integrating all the ideas expressed from the sessions. My Odyssey pathway is a wonderful group with participants who have so many varied and interesting viewpoints. A wonderful service you provide.”- Denise V.
