THE HISTORY DEPARTMENT teaches a variety of courses with the following principal objectives: to increase the students’ capacity to understand the world in which they live; to inform them of the historical process which produced that world; to encourage them to think critically and to evaluate objectively by seeking solutions to contemporary problems and by interpreting issues of the past; and to prepare them for enlightened, active citizenship in this culturally diverse society.
