All students are required to complete nine credits in the Core Distribution Requirements component, usually during the third or fourth year of the curriculum. The distribution areas indicated below include areas of study the faculty believe are essential to a student's personal and professional development. Students must select one course in each of three areas. A representative listing of appropriate courses in provided below.
Course offerings in historical study involve the acquisition of historical knowledge, understanding of historical processes, and the appreciation of historical methodology. Courses in literature expose students to a range of literary genres, issues and styles of past and present writers.
This component exposes students to the languages, values, intellectual traditions, and social and political institutions that comprise the history and thought of cultures different from their own. Students will gain insight into what their own culture has in common with others as well as what makes it unique.
This component extends knowledge acquired at the introductory level to enhance students' analytical skills in understanding human behavior, to familiarize students with principles of economics and to improve specific communication skills.
