This is the second in a series of three required and interrelated courses. HNRC 102 continues the emphases of HNRC 101: (a) introduction to major works of literature and fine arts; (b) introduction to major ideas in history, philosophy, religious studies; and (c) focus on critical thinking skills used in reading, writing, and discussion in an interrelated, synthetic, and interactive pedagogical environment. Although materials come from various periods and disciplines, each instructor has incorporated works from a common century to provide a common ground for exploring core questions. Building on their experiences in HNRC 101, students will become more critical and analytical in their reading and response. Further, the ability to synthesize will be emphasized based on their previous readings and learning experiences.
