What I Value about HILR
I love HILR for the opportunity to explore the parts of our culture that I was never able to delve into during my professional life. I enjoy exploring literature and art, as well as history and science. It has opened a world of ideas and thoughts that were inaccessible to me in my work life. Many of the best courses require intensive reasoning and deep thought.
