Two years of a foreign language or proficiency of a foreign language at the second year level, classical or modern, western or nonwestern, are required. A cumulative GPA of 3.0 is required for courses in the Humanities major. A second major is desirable.

The uniqueness of the humanities major lies in its theme-centered approach to the study of what individual men and women have created and continue to create, intellectually and aesthetically, as well as what they envision for the future. Although the humanities emphasize individual efforts and achievements, these efforts and achievements are viewed in light of the cultures from which they emerged.

The Humanities Minor

The humanities minor should be attractive to all students who wish to add a humanities program to their major field of study. The minor offers opportunities for interdisciplinary study, stimulates creative expression and helps students to develop an awareness and understanding of the major events which have shaped the civilization in which they live. Furthermore, a humanities minor on a student's record will be appreciated by many prospective employers and will probably distinguish this student from others.

The minor consists of 21 credits distributed among the following requirements:

• Engl. 240- World Literature and Masterpieces and           
•   Engl. 335 - Multicultural Writers        6   
• Two upper-level sequences in philosophy, religion, anthropology,
