Interdisciplinary Humanities

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.

Overview

Philosophy is the study of the fundamental nature of knowledge. It is the study of what humanity knows, and does not know. Outside of a purely academic understanding of knowledge, philosophy seeks to codify and understand universal truths that exist within our understanding.

Overview

Studying religion means exploring the deepest held beliefs of both contemporary humans and those who have worshiped in the past. The academic appreciation for, and study of, religion moves past proselytizing into a productive space of understanding human motivations in their proper context.
