Prof. Michael Bobkoff, AAB-528. Humanities is the broadest of the academic disciplines because it is concerned with the whole spectrum of man's social, intellectual, artistic, and spiritual history.
Humanities study reflects many aspects of human aspiration and achievement.
Academic subjects commonly included in humanities are literature, modern languages, philosophy, and the visual and performing arts. One of the major advantages of a humanities program is great flexibility. Students are not only allowed substantial freedom in course selection, but are actually encouraged to explore other academic areas. Students enrolled in the Humanities program may select courses in the arts, English or modern languages. The Associate in Arts degree program at WCC parallels most liberal arts programs in four-year colleges and universities.
