II. Intellectual Inquiry in the Humanities

These courses develop students’ skills in interpretation and analysis of creations of the human intellect such as art and literature (including folklore, popular culture, film and digital media), philosophical and religious contemplation and argumentation, language systems, and historical narratives. In these courses, students gain the ability not only to analyze the works themselves but to evaluate competing interpretations of such works.
