Weiran Liu Assignment 4

Studies of humanities will round out my education. I am a rather math and science oriented individual, and the study of humanities allows me to integrate cultural learning into my education. Furthermore, being introduced to such topics allows me to become a more creative thinker; the introduction of multiple cultural perspectives provides me with a new lens. Oftentimes I see subjects cross over, especially history, and I see how becoming an educated individual involves understanding the whole, and not just one portion of it. It also provides me with an appreciation of all that society has to offer - diversity, multicultural experiences, new thinking methods, art, etc. The more that I am exposed to liberal arts studies, the more aware I become of what is around me and what the world has contributed to the specialization of the human species.
