Mission The College of Liberal Arts builds a richer, more creative tomorrow through the rigorous study of human history, human expression, and the human mind. In disciplines ranging from Art to Anthropology, English to Economics, Policy to Psychology, we examine how meaning is made õ and how it can be remade. We equip students and society with tools to engage the most challenging issues: confronting the climate crisis; communicating truth in an era of misinformation; bringing nuance and context to public health discussion and policy development; valuing history and humanistic inquiry; dismantling systems of injustice; and nurturing creative expression.
