The range of time and texts we cover is enormous. Two Dartmouth quarters allow barely enough time. Hence the sequence.
Humanities 1 and 2 fulfill the First-Year Writing requirement, in place of taking Writing 5 and a First-Year Seminar.
No, you may leave after Humanities 1, receiving credit for Writing 5, as well as for the General Education requirements met by the course. There may also be limited spaces available in HUMS 2 for students who have taken Writing 5 in fall term. If you are interested please contact Professor Monika Otter (Monika.C.Otter@dartmouth.edu).
Each course fulfills the Literature Distributive, as well as the Western category of the World Culture Requirement.
Interested students should apply to the Director by August 10, 2013.
The first class of Humanities 1 will meet on Monday September 16, 2013. Humanities 1 and 2 are both scheduled at the 12 hour.
Attend the Open House during First-Year Orientation or contact Professor Monika Otter (Monika.C.Otter@dartmouth.edu).
