School of Humanities

Message from the Dean

Welcome to the School of Humanities! We believe the humanities are the crossroads of all disciplines, and provides students with a Christian perspective and the tools of analysis that will allow them to understand, describe, and explain the world around them in a critical context. Areas of study cover history, literature, philosophy, political science, and religion. A core element of a well-rounded education, the humanities enable insights into nearly every aspect of life. By encouraging students to think creatively and critically, to reason, to ask questions and to understand cultures, the SAU School of Humanities successfully builds future leaders, scholars, writers, researchers, teachers, lawyers, creators and entrepreneurs.

What our students say about the School of Humanities

"I feel very blessed to have been a part of the School of Humanities and all that Spring Arbor has given me. They have provided a space to build community, a non-judgmental community knowing that we all come from different backgrounds."
