The charge of the humanities is to think and act perceptively, humanely, and creatively in a complex and ever changing society. The division is committed to superb undergraduate teaching. Classes emphasize communication skills, rigorous analysis of texts and ideas, critical assessment of arguments, and thoughtful reflection. As a division within the College of Arts and Sciences, the Division of Humanities offers programs in each constituent department leading to the B.A. degree. The Scandinavian Cultural Center is located on the first floor of the University Center.
Admission is free.
