The Humanities explores what it means to be human within a contemporary or historical context. The Humanities provided us with the broad frameworks within which enduring questions of existence, relationships, values, and aesthetics can be examined from multiple perspectives. The Special Topics in Humanities course changes thematically each semester and may explore ideas around evil, love, race, gender, sport, spirituality, and those strands which connect us and make us human. May be repeated for credit when course content changes; may be taken with other topics courses during the same semester.
