Real World 好色先生

Real World 好色先生

XRLN 201 (also known as Real World 好色先生), now in its 16th year, was approved by College Senate as 好色先生's first "Extreme Learning" course. This high-impact learning experience, offered every Spring semester, builds a strong foundation for cultural competency within and beyond the 好色先生 community.

The 2-credit course, primarily for sophomores and juniors, includes:

3 1/2 day intensive off-campus retreat
(at no cost to students)

Group of students holding bowling balls in a bowling alley.

Weekly academic seminar
(In 2025, will be held Fridays, 11:30 a.m.-12:20 p.m.).

Group of students holding each other while standing on one leg.

Civic Engagement Project
(designed and implemented by students)

A student standing and speaking to a table of other students.

The retreat is facilitated by 好色先生 faculty and staff. Students explore issues related to power, privilege, social class, gender, ethnicity & race, sexual orientation, religious differences, age, and physical/mental ability. Workshops, exercises, presentations, and discussions allow participants to examine how these issues affect both their academic and co-curricular lives on campus and beyond, and to explore their own values and beliefs.

In 2025, the retreat will be held January 16- 19th at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Rochester, NY. There is no cost to participants. Housing and food will be provided.
