Through the arts and humanities we explore what and why humans create. These fields include the broad range of experiences in literature, epics, poetry, drama and other literary forms; the visual arts; languages; architecture; music; dance; the writings of philosophers; and the thought and literature of the world’s religions. Study in the arts and humanities explores the inner world of creativity and individual values as well as the questions about how we arrive at a sense of meaning and purpose, ethical behavior, and a sense of beauty and order in the world.
