"Transforming" Quote: "The most valuable tool for directing one's own life, be it in society, business, or family, is to have a well-rounded understanding of how we evolved as a people . . . the Providence College curriculum puts a substantial emphasis on its Development of Western Civilization program, and this provides all PC graduates with a unique preparedness to thrive in today's world."
