Breadth. Depth. Integration.
The L&CS program is a broad integrative course of study that seeks the education of the whole person. The program emphasizes multicultural awareness, self-assessment, ethical values, critical inquiry and social/environmental responsibility. The arts, academics, and social issues are integrated through service-learning experiences and coursework.
The Liberal & Civic Studies Program is based on the three following principles:
| Breadth is provided through a balance of required and optional courses in the humanities, fine arts, sciences, social sciences, mathematics, religious studies, and physical education. |
| Depth in an interdisciplinary field is achieved through an approved minor or concentration: 6 to 9 courses in an academic subject (e.g. history, english, mathematics, psychology) or in an interdisciplinary field (e.g. women's and gender studies, multicultural studies, montessori thought). |
| Integration is fostered in the Collegiate Seminar corses; in the 5 Liberal & Civic Studies Courses (121, 122, 123, Assessment & Portfolio 124, and Senior Capstone 130/31); and in the Field-Based Course. |
