The required General Education courses from the Humanities Department build skills in reading, writing, and critical thinking. Students first take a basic writing course, English Composition, that focuses on those skills that are necessary for logical presentation of thoughts and ideas in clear, concise language. (Advanced Expository Writing also meets this General Education and STCW requirement.) Then, students acquire the tools to work with and understand literature in Analysis and Interpretation of Literature so that fiction, poetry, and drama can be read and analyzed as to meaning, technique, and relative importance as examples of literary art. Students are then required to select two electives in the Humanities Department. One elective will be another literature course from Group 1, which includes a variety of genres, historical periods, and subject matter. The final elective may be chosen from either Group 1 or Group 2, which provides a broad range of offerings within the department.
