Interregnum
Every spring semester The King’s College takes time out from regular classes to spend time on a single intellectual theme of both philosophical depth and current public importance. In 2002-2003 the College focused on the topic of “God, War, and Terrorism,” exploring the issues surrounding the war with Iraq from political, social, theological, and ethical perspectives. The 2003-2004 academic year focused on topics related to “Building a Christian Worldview” and “How to Win Elections”. The 2004-2005 series took students into the strategic institution of New York City (the New York Stock Exchange, the United Nations; the New York City Bar; the FBI; and the Second Circuit Federal Court). In Fall 2005, the Interregnum focused on “Secularism” and included guest speakers Peter Berger and Christian Smith, as well as debates and presentations by students. In Spring 2006, the Interregnum focused on “Trust” as a subject both engaging the secular and the religious world. Dr. Alan Kors the main speaker of the event was invited to share with the students. Students debated amongst themselves on the topic of “Trust and Antitrust Laws”.

Participation Policy
Normal classes are set aside for Interregnum and attendance is taken at all sessions (which may be scheduled throughout the day and evening hours). Students are advised to make the necessary arrangements with work and family in order to be present at these events. Student participation in this non-credit-bearing requirement is graded on a pass/fail basis. Full time students who fail to attend the minimum number of sessions will be required to write a research paper and prepare an oral presentation exploring the themes of the lectures given. Part time students must attend for at least the time during which they would normally have been in class. Absences from these sessions earn the same penalty as an absence from a regular class. Satisfactory completion of this requirement each semester is necessary in order to register for the following semester.
