Yale University Daily News - Oct 30, 2007
Peter Luehring-Jones â09, co-chair of the Saybrook committee, said Saybrook begins each semester with about 40 proposals, which are winnowed down to 15 before the interview stage. He said he doubts dragons and Hogwarts will enter Yaleâs hallowed halls any time soon. âThe committee had a good laugh over the Harry Potter proposal,â Luehring-Jones said. âIt had a really well-written introduction that made it sound very interesting, but not something that you could talk about for 13 weeks. âBut the fact that such an unorthodox seminar could even be considered for inclusion among the Universityâs course offerings speaks to the idiosyncratic nature of seminar selection.

âIt had a really well-written introduction that made it sound very interesting, but not something that you could talk about for 13 weeks. âBut the fact that such an unorthodox seminar could even be considered for inclusion among the Universityâs course offerings speaks to the idiosyncratic nature of seminar selection. When considering unusual courses â such as the Harry Potter seminar â the Committee on Teaching in the Residential Colleges aims to expand studentsâ perspectives through often-overlooked fields of study, former CTRC chair and Saybrook master Mary Miller said. â[Itâs] a different way of focusing the material for students,â she said. âI think the committee does look with enthusiasm on these exciting and sometimes counterintuitive [pursuits] of some piece of knowledge of the world. âThe several-month-long process for selecting residential college seminars is designed to ensure that classes are academically rigorous while exploring areas beyond the reaches of a traditional Yale education. University policy is not to seek out seminar proposals, so ideas for new college seminars come from a variety of sources, from Yale faculty members and graduate students to faculty of other institutions and people outside the University who are distinguished in their academic or professional fields.
