The Arts and the Sciences have been the foundation of college education for centuries. This is the college that can blend basic sciences, arts and the humanities. It offers liberal education courses like the general education courses which integrate learning across the curriculum, and between academic and experiential learning. Studying the arts and sciences can expose an individual to the ideas and cultures of people from across and around the world, from ancient times until today.
