COUNSELLING<br />
I initially chose <strong>Providence</strong> because one of my parents<br />
attended <strong>Providence</strong>. The reason I stayed at <strong>Providence</strong><br />
was that I appreciated its high level of academics. Attending<br />
<strong>Providence</strong> helped me become more open-minded. I teach<br />
at a public high school, <strong>and</strong> I encourage my students to<br />
continually ask questions.<br />

Combining the Humanities <strong>and</strong> Social<br />
Sciences, the Interdisciplinary Arts are at<br />
the core of classic higher education. This<br />
major is comprised of two of the following<br />
three concentrations: Humanities, Social<br />
Sciences or Mathematics. The subject<br />
matter is people – all human thoughts<br />
<strong>and</strong> actions in life, all human experiences<br />
<strong>and</strong> expressions of life. In the Humanities,<br />
study people through History, Literature,<br />
Philosophy, Music <strong>and</strong> Theatre. The<br />
Social scientific method of studying<br />
people is empirical, combining both<br />
logic <strong>and</strong> systematic observation which<br />
includes Anthropology, Psychology <strong>and</strong><br />
Sociology.<br />
