What was is your favorite thing about the Liberal Studies major??

“I absolutely love the Liberal Studies major. I have been able to transfer over most of my credits, as well as take CLEP exams to transfer in additional credits. The Liberal Studies major gives students the ability to take a variety of classes in the Arts, Languages, Sciences, Mathematics, and Philosophies. It is very holistic and very practical.”
