Students also select a minor in another discipline or the contextual and support area for religion. The purpose of the contextual and support courses is to promote familiarity with significant works of literature and methods of literary interpretation, understanding of historical background for current issues in religious life and practice, awareness of the relationships of human beings to social structures and the processes of growth in personal identity, and improvement in clarity of thought and effectiveness of communication. These goals are met through six to ten courses selected in consultation with the department from approved courses in English, language, art, history, music, philosophy, biology, economics, geography, political science, psychology, and sociology. The senior project is a community service project developed in consultation with the advisor and approved by the department. Minor in Religion |
