Institute for Creative Inquiry - Catalysts
ICI instructors are provided funds to bring a recognized innovator with expertise and experience related to the subjects of their particular course. Working closely with those students and faculty, these individuals also present their work to the larger university community. Previous catalysts have included an expert on knot theory, an architect of memorials, and a Broadway composer.
