Degrees and Certificates Offered
Humanities, AA
Overview
The study of the humanities, by which we mean the disciplines of literature, philosophy, religion, history, and the arts, is necessary if a student is to claim that he/she is well-educated. The truly well-educated person is one who has gained not only the practical skills necessary for succeeding in a career but also has expanded the mind and heart through the study of thought, culture, and artistic expression. Studying the liberal arts brings awareness and understanding of the world, of the people in it, and of the individual.
