HUM 180 Introduction to the Humanities
An introductory course to the humanities that surveys Western and Eastern artistic and theoretical expression. Through themes in the humanities, students will explore the disciplines of art, music, theatre and their relationships to one another. A number of important art works and diverse genres in each discipline will be analyzed and discussed through critical and analytical discussions, readings and writings, critiques, and self-guided (independent) field trips. Assignments will enable students to appreciate and value the arts in a historical, social, (multi)cultural, biographical, and aesthetic context.
