Innovative Curriculum
Two features define our distinctive curriculum—a Core Sequence and expert instruction.
Our four-year Core Sequence nurtures students who write, reason, and engage in argumentation with the precision and incisiveness that is our hallmark. Our curriculum as a whole offers discipline-specific knowledge along with these broadly applicable life skills: an understanding of evidence; strategies of criticism and persuasion; facility with the analysis of data; critical listening, thinking, and reasoning abilities.
With a passion for and expertise in the subjects they teach, our instructors have produced courses that model the professional methods, skills, norms, and intellectual habits of each discipline. See how this approach informs all our academics:
