Kelsey Cole After all the time I've spent studying hard in school and getting good grades, I never really valued the process of learning. But through the Newberry Seminar in the Humanities, I found that the pure desire to learn and to unearth something which has never before been examined is a reward beyond any outside praise or recognition, and comes from the great pride of discovery.

—Kelsey Cole, Newberry Seminar in the Humanities, Fall 2007
