Humanities and Communication

Welcome to HCOM

Welcome to the Department of Humanities & Communication (HCOM)! We are a dynamic, inclusive community dedicated to preparing students to think critically, act ethically, and engage creatively in a diverse and interconnected world. 🌍

Our mission is to prepare ethical, creative, and critical thinkers and doers in a multicultural and increasingly interconnected global society.

Toward that end, we offer a comprehensive, interdisciplinary humanities and liberal arts education for the 21st century.
