Mission Statement

The School of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences offers degree programs and courses of study in several disciplines. Through superb teaching, students and graduates of the School acquire many of the intellectual and practical skills necessary for the workplace, for further professional and graduate study, and for participation in the community, in the nation, and globally.

In the challenging, yet nurturing, environment of the classroom, and through undergraduate scholarship, research, and service-learning projects, our students have the opportunity to reach their academic and employment goals. Many of the School's graduates move right into the workforce, and many others continue their education in fields such as law, business, medicine, government, teaching, the social sciences, and the fine arts.
