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 />
