Minor in Humanities
The Humanities minor is designed for students who wish to study art, literature, music, and related fields beyond the two

student who plans to minor in Humanities should complete an application for the minor during the semester in which the student
is enrolled in World Humanities II. The form is available in the Department of English and Foreign Languages. The student will
then select courses in consultation with a Humanities advisor.
