Featured Highlights

Kaplan Humanities Scholars Orientation, Fall 2019

Big Ideas. Great Teachers. Vital Questions.

The Kaplan Humanities Scholars Program is a team-taught exploration of the humanities for incoming first-years. Kaplan Scholars learn to argue for important values and discriminate among competing forms of evidence by examining how artists, thinkers, and ordinary citizens alike have contributed to the central role of the arts and humanities in our world.
