Barbara Burnett:
“I’ve heard so many people say RENESAN has changed their lives.
You have this incredible potpourri of classes you can dip into and be stimulated.
People enjoy this shared arena of intellectual exploration. It’s a community.
It is never static. It moves; it changes; it evolves.
People in Santa Fe have had – and continue to have – huge intellectual lives. So RENESAN feeds a need in our community.”

Karen Kleeman:
“RENESAN had 200 students in 2007. Now we have over 800. It’s become a more successful organization than we ever dreamt.
We produce close to 60 offerings every semester, including courses, lectures, and trips.
I’m a retired professor and I have never experienced better teaching. The scholarship and diverse expertise are incredible.
There’s always electricity in the halls.
I cannot tell you the number of people who wait for this catalog to come out, who construct their lives and travel agendas around the Renesan curriculum.
RENESAN’S mission is the curriculum.
You have people who went through college and now look back and think ‘I never took a class in Shakespeare.’ Now they’d like to.
RENESAN offers adults an incredible opportunity to enrich themselves and fill in areas of curiosity.”

“RENESAN: It ain’t your grandmother’s book club.”
I’m always stunned by the amount of challenging work our students are willing to take on at this point in their lives.
Our lecturers have a commitment to what they’re learning. They’re serious.
RENESAN is one of the great bargains in this city.
RENESAN remains an undiscovered treasure.”
