general studies department
The General Studies Department at LCC is home to History and Foreign
Language faculty and courses. In addition to offering core requirement
courses, the department offers upper-level history courses, and German
language and literature courses.
Mission statement General studies courses fulfil two objectives of a liberal education:
to acquaint students with the important ideas in the history and current
practice of civilization, and to challenge students to reflect critically
upon those ideas. While General Studies is not a Major or Minor program,
these courses give students a wide background in the central concepts
and skills necessary for good citizenship.
