The Hutchins minor is designed to help the student in a traditional discipline understand the relation that his or her major field of study bears to a number of other areas of inquiry and expertise. The minor consists of 20 units, taken in the Hutchins School, and is distributed as follows.

Students must complete LIBS 202 or LIBS 302 before they will be allowed to take a seminar (LIBS 320 or 321). In consultation with an advisor, students select interdisciplinary core seminars and other courses offered in the major, and then complete LIBS 402 during their final semester, examining the student’s major field of study in relation to other disciplinary perspectives.
