I live in Santa Fe, and have gone by this campus many times since theres a pretty cool bike trail that runs behind the campus.

I got curious once and looked up what it's like to study there and discovered the "great books" curriculum. These days I'm in my 40s and have a successful computer science career, so there is nothing to gain from enrolling in this program, but if I were to ever enroll in school again, it would probably be this program or one like it.

When I was in school, what I really hated most about it was how common it was for professors to make the class about them. In a program like St. Johns, the curriculum is set in stone, and so there is very little room for the professor to inject himself into the class. When I was in undergrad in the early 2000s, if you disagreed with the professor, you'd be seen as being disrespectful or disruptive and your grade would suffer. I have a feeling that wouldn't be a problem at St. Johns.
