Courses that revolve around a discussion model and offer core-text readings in lieu of textbooks help students of all age and ability levels develop the practice and skills needed to speak clearly, read carefully, reason effectively, and think creatively \u2013 giving them a solid foundation to build their academic careers, professional goals, and become engaged lifelong civic leaders. We firmly believe in the power of a community college education: to provide accessible and quality liberal arts education, ensuring that all can grow and prosper in our free society.<\/span><\/h5>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Q7rxI-BwR3g?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p><a id=\"quoteLink\" href=\"https:\/\/instruction.austincc.edu\/thegreatquestions\/student-experience\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-796\" src=\"https:\/\/instruction.austincc.edu\/thegreatquestions\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2019\/07\/rotating_quote.gif\" alt=\"&quot;The Great Questions Seminar helped me in my other classes by giving me confidence to speak my mind . . . &quot; Lizbeth Ortiz &quot;I've gained a whole new look on the world, I learned a lot of things are not as they seem.&quot; Accasia McKinley &quot;This seminar has really helped me to break through some of my self imposed limitations.&quot; Gregory Cox\" width=\"876\" height=\"718\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fulfill your Student Success Course requirement!
