Biography/Organization History

Historical Note: The College of Arts and Sciences, originally founded as Lee College in 1982, ably integrates the study of Jewish and world civilizations into its core curriculum to provide students with a global understanding of the world. Combining comprehensive instruction in the humanities and social sciences, the College offers majors in Bioethics and Natural Sciences, Business, Globalization and Human Development, Liberal Studies, Literature, Communication & Media, Intergroup Relations and Conflict, International Security, Israel and the Middle East: Politics and Policy, Jewish Studies, Political Science, Psychology, US Law and Public Policy, and Individualized Majors. Small, intimate classroom settings enable students to gain a firm grounding in these disciplines and to intensely pursue their intellectual passions. The College’s Service Learning Program, an integral part of the undergraduate curriculum, instills in students a deep appreciation for civic participation. Through active, long term involvement with a service organization in the region, students come to understand that community outreach is a commitment that should last a lifetime.
