This issue of Virtues & Vocations: Higher Education for Human Flourishing is about work: meaningful or purposeful work, balancing work and leisure, and the ethics of work. We have lovely, thoughtful, and compelling essays from engineers, physicians, and educators and deeply personal, often poignant reflections from a range of individuals working in different industries and settings. We have, as in every issue, thoughtfully paired each essay with a piece of art that evokes a sense of work without being overly didactic.
