The purpose of the discipline is to provide students with extensive course offerings to enable them to cope with a complex and ever-shrinking world. The study of history and political science also provides students with a broad background for a wide variety of professional occupational opportunities. Within the History major are concentrations in American Studies, Foreign Service and Labor Studies-Labor Relations. The discipline also offers a minor in Middle East Studies, a pre-law program, an honors curriculum, and an honors seminar course taken at the American Antiquarian Society. Phi Alpha Theta, the national history honor society, is open to distinguished History majors even if they are not in the honors curriculum.
