Liberal Arts - Humanities
Specialization
Before the natural sciences and the social sciences appeared
on the scene in western culture, human beings attempted to understand and make
sense of their existence through descriptions now included in the broad category
of "humanities." Religion, philosophy, drama, rhetoric, literature, and the fine
arts all attempted to portray the human condition and our place in the social
and natural worlds without the aid of scientific method, measurement, or
instruments. Rather than being displaced by science, the humanities continue to
account for our existence through insight, individual and shared experience,
reasoned analysis, speculation, and aesthetic expression. The Humanities
Specialization in Liberal Arts prepares students for transfer to four year
schools who intend to major in one of the humanities disciplines. Completion of
a bachelors degree in a humanities discipline can also open the door to a
variety of graduate or professional programs.
