Passport: First-Year Seminar provides students with an introduction and orientation to college through an academic experience they share with their classmates. It is a four-credit, graded course taken by all first-year students and required for graduation. It provides a common experience for students as they make the transition to college. The instructor for each section also serves as the advisor for students in his/her section.
Each student in the Passport course during the fall 2006 semester received a copy of The World is Flat by Pulitzer-Prize winning author Thomas Friedman. Mr. Friedman then made a visit to Morningside’s campus, giving a lecture, answering questions, and offering a book signing session for students.
