Ever wish you could go back to college again without having to worry about grades and exams? Then attend College Day, which is coordinated by the Dean of the College of Arts and Science, and experience a day in the liberal arts tradition. The College of Arts and Sciences offers a liberal arts curriculum that fosters the development of the broadly educated person. Encompassing the humanities, arts, social sciences and natural sciences, the liberal arts seek knowledge and understanding of the physical world, the social world and the nature of the human condition.
Characterized by critical inquiry and the power of discovery, the philosophy of liberal education is to free the mind from ignorance and empower the individual. The College of Arts and Sciences faculty invites the community to come to college to participate in “classes” that explore these principles in the disciplines they have engendered. The college also invites the professional schools, the School of Nursing, the Cameron School of Business and the Watson School of Education to offer “classes” as well.
A liberal arts education develops students with a love of learning and the desire to become lifetime learners. Become one of these students! Traditionally held the last Saturday before Thanksgiving, registration is open to the public. For more information, contact the College of Arts and Sciences at (910)962-3111.
