LIBERAL ARTS: Women’s Studies Option
The Women’s Studies Option offers an understanding of many familiar subjects from the perspective of women. The Women’s Studies option prepares students with all the traditional skills of a liberal arts education: practice in critical reading, critical thinking, and clear, well-organized writing; and background in several academic disciplines, always with women of all races, nationalities and sexual orientations at the center. Women’s Studies students are prepared to transfer to all majors in liberal arts B. A. programs, including the many four-year Women’s Studies majors available. Students entering the work world transfer their skills in writing, research and thinking to a variety of jobs. A minimum of 62 credit hours are required for graduation.
