Loss and Legacy

Harvard Extension School

PSYC E-1028

Section 1

CRN 17042

View Course Details
Grief is ubiquitous. Yet, in many cultures, this aspect of human experience is taboo to discuss and scientific research into understanding grief is a relatively recent endeavor. We focus on meaning-making creative activities and on addressing collective grief. Weather permitting, we take a guided tour and explore an historical and innovative cemetery. Students learn about ethical wills and begin creating their own legacy writing. Students may not take both PSYC E-1017w (offered previously) and PSYC E-1028 for degree or certificate credit.

Registration Closes: August 29, 2024
