What the college says

The purpose of historical inquiry is not simply to present facts but to search for an interpretation of the past. It is commonly acknowledged that an understanding of the past is fundamental to an understanding of the present. History is essential to the traditional objectives of the liberal arts: the quest for wisdom and virtue. Most importantly, history is both fascinating and fun! History combines the excitement of exploration and discovery with the sense of reward born of successfully confronting and making sense of complex and challenging problems.
