How the CHA defines聽'humanities':
The CHA uses the聽National Endowment for the Humanities' definition of聽humanities (see below):
鈥淭he term 鈥榟umanities鈥 includes, but is not limited to, the study of the following: language, both modern and classical; linguistics; literature; history; jurisprudence; philosophy; archaeology; comparative religion; ethics; the history, criticism and theory of the arts; those aspects of social sciences which have humanistic content and employ humanistic methods; and the study and application of the humanities to the human environment with particular attention to reflecting our diverse heritage, traditions, and history and to the relevance of the humanities to the current conditions of national life.鈥
The humanities and the arts have a special role to play in our聽out to our constituency, for they are not only the objects of scholar study and practice on campus, but also shape our common reservoir of ideas, experiences, and aspirations.
