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. Past
topics have been “God, War, and
Terrorism,” “Building a
Christian Worldview,” “How to
Win Elections,” “Secularism,”
“Trust,” “Difficulty,” and
“Civilization.”
Guest speakers have included
sociologist and Lutheran
theologian, Peter Berger;
sociologist of religion and
culture, Christian Smith;
chairman of the board of
directors of the Foundation for
Individual Rights in Education
(FIRE), Alan Kors; founder and
editor of First Things, Father
Richard John Neuhaus; and
Princeton University Law
Professor Robert George .
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.
