Through The Eyes Of Others

Introduction College is mostly head work – read, write, memorize, regurgitate, then read and write some more. There’s little opportunity for reflection, even less for human connection. This time-honored method may work – more or less – for the study of microbes, or legal briefs, or gravitational forces, or cost-benefit analyses. But if you’re trying to learn about people, it doesn’t cut it. To understand how people live, what motivates them, what infuriates them, what brings out their best selves – you have to get to know them, listen to them, see things through their eyes.
