<p>S1 took Conflict Theory and Aikido with professor Levine. It turned out to be his favorite course he has taken at Chicago. It requires that students actually practice Aikido at a local Dojo as part of the course, and part of the course grade is the actual physical application of what was learned at the Dojo as well as the regular reading material. It is also very rigorous in its levels of analysis and classroom discussion requirements. An early version of the syllabus for the course can be found in Levine’s recent book, Powers of the Mind: Reinventing Liberal Learning in America.</p>
