This inquiry-based approach to learning should yield a critical appreciation for the humanities and social sciences that helps students to recognize the relevance of such disciplines to their daily lives. The course will also challenge students to cultivate intellectual skills that are essential to the profitable pursuit of a liberal education: e.g., analytical thinking, critical and reflective reading, well-expressed writing, and articulate oral communication.
