We took part in three of Andy Hill’s Introduction to Philosophy classes. There were nearly forty students in each class from a wide variety of ethnic, religious and cultural groups. Also a great range in age and experience. Many were looking to improving their qualifications to get better jobs or get back into to work. One student is due to deliver her baby before the end of the semester! Good luck with that Andy!
Andy introduced himself and told his story about how he got involved with Corrymeela and then handed over to us to tell our story and say a little about what Corrymeela is. The class then introduced themselves and said a little about where they were from, what they were aiming for and what they had been doing prior to their studies. We plan to participate with the students in these classes in the coming weeks.
