The End of Average: A Faith Point of View: If you’re like most people, you’ve been judged in comparison to the average for your entire life. In school, your performance was defined by your difference from the average student. At work, your manager might judge your performance with benchmarks calibrated to the average worker. In this class, we will take a faith-based approach to the notion that our blind reliance on the average as a tool to understand people has led to deep-seated structural problems in society—problems that encourage conformity and diminish our unique strengths. May be repeated for credit up to 9 credits.
