New Social Science Option

The history department will be offering a new course in spring that satisfies the social science requirement. HIST 131 World History will be a hybrid course meeting for 75 mins on Monday nights, with the rest of the content being delivered online. This could be a great option for students who have a full schedule but still need a social science. It will fulfill the same requirements as our HIST 117, 118, 221, and 222 classes.
Please feel free to contact us with questions.
Thanks!
