Cross-Disciplinary Tutorials
In order to diversify the upper-level curriculum, members of the German faculty offer
literary as well as non-literary 2 or 4 credit cross-disciplinary tutorials
to students of all majors taught side by side with virtually any course
offered at Bard. For example, a philosophy major with a third-year
competence in German who is taking a course on nineteenth-century
Continental Philosophy can read and discuss Nietzsche The Birth of Tragedy
in both English (in the philosophy course) and German (in the concurrent
tutorial).

faculty: Franz Kempf (kempf@bard.edu);
