Humanities

Gives the student a start toward viewing the arts as an expression of the meaning of life. Interweaves interpretations of history and a variety of works of poetry, drama, novel, painting, sculpture, music, and philosophy to illustrate mankind’s changing awareness.

Explores ways in which the humanities can contribute to personal and work lives, especially as individuals face change and make decisions. Analyzes how individuals world-wide examine circumstances including the changing landscape of living among people of various beliefs and cultures, making decisions, and dealing with consequences of such decisions. Examines the onset of other choices presented to us as a result of the original decisions made, or alternatively, made for us by our choosing not to engage in the process.
