Syllabi Disciplinarum

Each age has a special risk. Ours is letting half the world starve literally and nine-tenths of it starve educationally. No species can afford to be ignorant. The only world in which it could allow itself such a luxury is one in which it had no enemies and had risen above hazard and evolution.                                                                                                              -- John Fowles, The Aristos

Syllabi for the courses I teach routinely are included below; they are, for the most part, generic, and future offerings may be expected to deviate from the genus in a variety of specific ways.
