University in the Community has been brought to you by Davenport Perth Neighbourhood Centre, Woodsworth College, the University of Toronto, Senior College, University of Toronto, St. Stephen’s Community House and the Workers' Educational Association, this program is a free educational opportunity for people with low incomes to participate in university level classes in the Humanities.

The Tuesday and Thursday classes at University in the Community have been postponed until the fall of 2012. Since 2003 UinC has been run by volunteers and financed by two grants from the Trillium Foundation. We have used up the grant money and are now fundraising so that we can resume our Tuesday and Thursday program.

We will be offering a series of lectures every other week starting after Christmas

What are the Humanities?

The Humanities try to answer the big questions of life. What is the meaning of life? How should we live our lives? What is a moral life? What is the best route to a happy life? What do I owe myself? What do I owe others? In studying the Humanities, we learn how philosophers, poets, artists and historians through the centuries have tried to answer these questions and we try to discover what we ourselves think the answers are.
