The Vanderbilt Master of Liberal Arts and Science (MLAS) program will preview classes about ethics, the artist Michelangelo and American Southern Jews at an open house May 4.
The event begins at 6 p.m. in Room 203 of Cohen Memorial Hall, 1220 21st Ave. S. Anyone interested in the program is encouraged to attend.
The Vanderbilt University MLAS program is designed for working adults, typically meeting one night or weekend day a week to explore topics in a graduate-level seminar format. MLAS classes cost about half the tuition of a standard Vanderbilt class, and further discounts are available to Vanderbilt employees.
The MLAS program is open to college graduates who complete an application process and are accepted.
Course offerings this summer are:
- Southern Jews in Life and Literature with Adam Meyer, associate professor of Jewish studies;
- Ethics with Robert Talisse, the W. Alton Jones Professor of Philosophy and chair of the department; and
- Michelangelo Buonarroti: Life and Works with Sheri Shaneyfelt, principal senior lecturer in history of art.
