Excepting our subject tutorials, all of our courses are conducted by open-ended conversation.
We focus on the deepest human questions, aided by careful attention to the reading. We strive to read and think for ourselves, and avoid secondary sources.
Our online courses are available to readers in a wide range of circumstances, in every corner of the world. Our in-person events help to bring the love of learning to life in local communities.
For more about our defining principles, see our About Us page.
Enrollment for our Fall 2026 term is OPEN!
