Earn an Associate Degree in Liberal Arts with an Emphasis on Arts, Humanities and Communications
These courses emphasize the study of cultural, literary, humanistic activities and
artistic expression of human beings. Students will evaluate and interpret the ways
in which people through the ages in different cultures have responded to themselves
and the world around them in artistic and cultural creation. Students will learn to
value aesthetic understanding and incorporate these concepts when constructing value
judgments. A course from each of the three areas, Arts, Humanities, and Communications must be
included in the 18 units selected for this emphasis. This emphasis may be of interest to those planning to pursue careers in art history,
communications, dance, deaf studies, English, languages, music, philosophy, studio
art, teaching, and theatre arts.
