Living-Learning Community

Are you looking for a place where you can explore your life’s purpose?

Do you want to belong to a community free from the pressures to perform and pretend you have life all figured out?

Can you imagine belonging to a living and learning community where your closest friends disagree with you about politics, ethics, and religion—and you treasure your friendship precisely because you are free to disagree?

Are you looking for a space where you are encouraged to pursue the truth wherever it may lead you?

If so, then you may want to consider the Transformative Ideas LLC, where you can enjoy candid dinner conversations, engaging speakers, house courses on important topics usually not discussed at Duke, and personal connections with some of Duke’s best professors. You will join a vibrant and close intellectual community of over 45 TI student fellows from first years through seniors.
