"Literature and History allow students to make sense of the world and the human experience, establish a sense of connection to their ancestors and contemporaries, and develop a capacity for perspective, empathy, and understanding."
-Dr. Kathleen Ryan & Dr. Nicholas Ganson,
Co-Directors of Literature & History Program
Canonical literary works, supplemented by the philosophical and religious history of world cultures, constitute a major portion of our collective intellectual journey. This program is designed to introduce students to the dimensions of literature and history that have illuminated the human experience and that continue to inspire a deep desire for positive change.
