MISSION: The School of Humanities seeks to enable students and faculty to explore and articulate their Christian worldview, reflecting on the human condition and varieties of human experience using minds informed by biblical faith.
A major focus of the humanities is the appropriate use of languages, particularly the construction and interpretation of written texts. Our disciplines focus on the task of clarifying words, concepts and arguments; we value both imaginative and rhetorical skills. Our scholarly efforts seek to maintain a critical dialogue with the past. Our disciplines do not lead to primarily utilitarian ends but rather seek to make possible a deeper personal and social life.
