You will focus on critical thinking, writing, and communication skills, with a wide variety of classes in communication, English, and philosophy.

Possible classes include interviewing, argumentation and debate, media writing, public speaking, logic, creative writing, professional writing, and more, along with additional humanities electives.

Are you curious about how race and gender are central to the understanding of people and communities? This may be the concentration for you. You will consider gender and communication, Hispanic culture, philosophy in Asia, and the music of eastern and western society. 

Potential classes include Spanish language, women’s literature, U.S. cultural history, literature and public life, film genres, cross cultural communication, and more.

You were born to be on stage, and this concentration will provide you with background in theatre and music, with an emphasis on performance.

You may take classes including music theory, music history, and acting. Musicians can study low brass, trumpet, percussion, guitar, piano, violin, cello, voice, flute or piccolo, or saxophone, and will have opportunities to perform with ensembles such as the concert band or flute choir.

In theatre, classes include directing, movement, children’s theatre, arts management, and voice.

You have a wide variety of interests, and don’t want to be limited to one area of study. The thematic cluster in humanities allows you to work with the humanities program coordinator to create a specialized concentration around a specific theme, incorporating multiple disciplines. You might choose literature, language, philosophy, communication, music, and more.
