Course Fulfillment
The Humanities Program is a yearlong sequence of HUM 103 (Fall) and HUM 104 (Spring), open only to first-year students.
Humes meets three times a week for 75 minutes (Tuesday and Thursday mornings, and again Thursday late afternoons). Students also meet outside the official class times for required small discussion groups, writing tutor sessions, and the required pre-orientation, Sapere Aude.
Completing both HUM 103 and 104 earns a student three course credits. Completing the two courses fulfills three graduation requirements: the Writing requirement, the Historical Thought Ways of Knowing requirement, and the Literary Studies, Creative Writing, and Rhetoric Ways of Knowing requirement. Students who withdraw from the HUM 103/104 survey after completing only HUM 103 receive only one course credit and satisfy no graduation requirements.
