Having trouble getting into a HUM 414 course? The Integrative Liberal Studies Program is offering sections of LS 479, our Liberal Studies Senior Colloquium, this summerfall. The Humanities Program encourages students needing the HUM 414 course to enroll in LS 479, for which you will get credit for 414. LS 479 is a 3 credit-hour seminar examining issues of engaged citizenship in an increasingly global society. Students begin the semester by studying Western and non-Western ethical traditions, and then use ethics as a tool for analyzing seminar topics including globalization and democratic governance, globalization and development, and environmental issues and justice.
About Our Department 
The interdisciplinary Humanities program is concerned with the wide range of human ideas, values and institutions. The courses examine what we have achieved in our several thousand years of recorded history, what we have desired, what we have believed, and how these concerns and passions influence us. Humanities helps us make educated and ethical decisions. The Humanities program draws together faculty and subject matter from all of the liberal arts--especially history, literature and philosophy but also religion, natural science, social science, and fine arts. All humanities classes involve close reading of primary sources and literary works, informal discussion and gradual refinement of the student's capacity for written and oral response.
