To develop the means by which the disciplines within the arts, social sciences and humanities at this institution would be brought together, or interwoven, into a common vehicle. For many years the above instructional areas have been taught as separate entities and thought of as compartments of knowledge; students have selected from many, many traditional 3-unit courses to satisfy a "general education" requirement. There has been no thought as to the cohesiveness of the separate courses and how they might be taught as a whole.
