Core Renewal: Enduring Questions For Freshmen Only What does it mean to come of age? What experiences define us, as we make our journey through life? How do we process those moments of crisis and calm, so that we can become better prepared to engage effectively in all that life holds for us as adults? Exploring written narratives of the adolescent experience provides opportunities for personal growth, for understanding of this challenging transition, and for recognizing common patterns and bonds we all share. Through analysis of narrative techniques, students explore approaches to storytelling that create a pact between author and reader that encourages consideration of their stories
