Courses Designed for You, by You
At HILR, program participants create the curriculum. They share their passions or investigate new areas of interest by designing and leading seminar-style courses.
Here, you might take a course on FDR’s Supreme Court led by a retired trial attorney. Or you might join a former bank president in an exploration of music theory. With over 60 courses to choose from each semester, you’re sure to find topics that interest you.
