Inter-Session Courses and Seminars
Traditionally there are courses and/or seminars offered at Don Bosco Hall in Berkeley between the fall and spring semesters. The courses are known as “inter-sessions“ by the GTU and can be taken for graduate school credit. The seminars offer the same quality education and formation, and are primarily for personal formation for anyone who seeks to delve into the Salesian mission and charism a bit more deeply. Sometimes there is overlap between the inter-session and seminar, and those who take a course for credit may be required to do additional reading and other assignments.
