EXCLUSIVELY LIBERAL ARTS

Our liberal arts approach to a  means you will choose courses from different academic departments before narrowing your focus in upper years of study. You won’t be restricted to one field of study.

  • Advanced critical thinking
  • Creative problem solving
  • Research and analysis
  • The ability to adapt to new ideas and technologies

 

TIGHT-KNIT, SUPPORTIVE COMMUNITY

The small size of our campus, and our sole undergraduate focus on Arts means you will get to know fellow STUdents and professors in small classes that allow for engaging dialogue and encourage collaborative learning. New faces soon become familiar through common courses and shared interests.

 

MEANING, PURPOSE, AND VALUE

 

You will grow in ways you never imagined.

 

With the support of professors, you will learn to explore controversial and competing ideas with informed judgment.

These opportunities will help you cultivate important connections and lay the foundation for your professional network. You will graduate knowing which causes matter most to you and how you want to use your degree to help others.
