It is an experiment with the definite hypothesis that the human intellect can be vitalized toward great ideas only by challenging contact with great ideas. The end of all education is intellectual autonomy, but how is this achieved? The originators of this experiment conceive four conditions to be essential to the growth of independent and creative thought. These four conditions, one, the historical approach, two, to the original sources of humanistic studies, three, in a seminar method, four, by the students' ideological engagement, constitute the cornerstone upon which the Seminar was created. Under the direction of the Rev. Thomas L. O'Brien, S.J. and the assistant direction of the Rev. William M. Weller, S.J., select students mentally travel from the first more homogeneous ideas of the ancient East, historically gaining momentum, toward the more complex contemporary ideas. 16
