This web site services the reading and resource needs of the Humanities courses of the College of Arts and Social Sciences. It will be regularly updated with materials and links for ready access of our Humanities classes. I have included a syllabus of Humanities 1 (Introduction to the Humanities). Personal essays will be a part of this.
