Liberal Arts: History, Law and Society Major

You’ll find yourself at the interdisciplinary crossroads between Law and History as you examine how law, in its many forms, has contributed to shaping society, be it through domestic and international court systems or the methods employed by citizens to resist unjust laws. You will study the evolution of laws and cases revolving around such crucial issues as the death penalty, criminal justice, hate speech, transgender rights, and immigration. You may enroll in this major as an informal pre-law major or to complement other areas of study.
