FGCU Philosopher Runners

For the second year, Florida Gulf Coast University professor Dr. Sean Kelly brought his honors philosophy class to Craftsbury.  His semester-long class "Intentional Living" explored the connections between philosophy and running and culminated here at the Center. The philosopher runners came to Craftsbury prepared to plunge into a week of running, sculling, orienteering, summer biathlon, hiking and biking. They've done it all in high-spirited style all week.
