Prove the Relevance of a Broad Education in the Humanities

We should make the relevance of those experiences more apparent and accessible. We will designate paths through the 罗耀拉核心 so that students can match the knowledge and skills they need to their own interests: (1) diversity, 股本, 和包容, (2) creativity and culture, (3) nature and humanity, and (4) the economic enterprise. We will design core courses more exciting and obviously relevant to non-majors.
