Humanities/History at The Collegium
The Sequence
The Humanities/History courses at The Collegium follow a chronological sequence, studying not just events, but how these events are intertwined with developments in The Church, society, theology, philosophy, literature, and the arts.
Additional Feature
There are numerous archives - many of religious orders or of special importance to the local history of The church - in Hagerstown or nearby. You will have opportunities to engage in history through archival research, something that rarely happens in undergraduate programs.
