Abstract: Abstract In this paper, I describe a course, “The Beloit Economy and Adam Smith,” which I designed for a first-year initiative program at Beloit College in Beloit, Wisconsin. The course, as the title suggests, includes readings from Smith’s An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations, as well as experiential or community-based learning experiences. These experiences include tours of the local community and visits to local businesses.
