Humanities 108 is a course that uses historical, literary, and philosophical texts to examine one “big” question each year, such as “what is true love?” Or “how can my life mean something?”
We collaborated with Greenfield Community College to design Humanities 108, a college course for credit offered to both our High School Equivalency students and those who have graduated but have not yet matriculated or have had to take a break from their college pursuits.
This course is designed to introduce students to the world of big ideas, complex questions, and engaging texts. Throughout the course, students improve their reading, speaking, and writing skills and gain a fundamental excitement about the material. It is one semester long and graduates earn three college credits. The course also serves as a great preparation for The Clemente Course for the Humanities and other college level courses.
