History
History is the story of human community as it has developed through time. It is a narrative and interpretive study, based upon documentary evidence. History plays a central role in the liberal arts curriculum because of its value in illustrating the human condition through time and in integrating into a comprehensible whole the range of activities that have formed the human experience. It is recommended that students take courses from each of the broad historical areas: U.S. History, European History, and Non-western History. The History major prepares students for a number of occupations and postgraduate studies, including secondary and college teaching, law, ministry, government, and public service.
