H - Humanities

H 333: The Art of Being Human

This course not only considers the humanities as art, music, dance, religion, literature and writing, but also as a "technique" for living. Students will be encouraged to see artists, composers, writers and thinkers from around the world and across the cultures as more than creative professionals and models of what the students can be. (General Education: Intellect & Inquiry Series: Arts/Language/Literature)

H 373: Landmarks in the Human Experience (3)

This humanities/human culture course explores major achievements in human culture across a range of time periods and geographical locations. The course, in particular, addresses the art, music, literature/theater, architecture, social structures, and cultural issues confronting at least two to three distinct cultural periods. Students' learning will be enhanced by traveling to a location where they can experience first-hand some of the achievements studied. Cultures studied and location visited may vary from semester to semester.
