Welcome to the Arts and Humanities and the History and Society Divisions!

Our 25 full-time faculty and several adjuncts represent a rich variety of specializations in liberal arts disciplines and in the fine arts.

In a world characterized by diverse cultures and ways of knowing, we are committed to an innovative, competency-based curriculum that enables students to formulate, explore, and reflect critically on historical, cultural, and contemporary issues. We help educate students to be capable of living fulfilling lives not only as professionals, but as individuals, family members, citizens, and contributors to social and cultural life.

Our curriculum is supported by several campus centers. The Speech Resource Center and the Writing Center support our rhetoric courses and promote rhetoric as an art and a craft on campus. By sponsoring activities in the fine and performing arts, the Sorenson Center for the Performing Arts, the Sorenson Visual Arts Center, and the Horn Gallery support our curriculum and contribute to the richness of campus life.
