The liberal arts is a curriculum
![Page 8: UVA MDST 3703 2012-08-28](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061203/547d1d2f5806b5e53f8b486d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
How has the curriculum changed?Think of the what we mean by “arts and sciences”

How is it different from the professional schools?(engineering, business, medicine, law)
![Page 11: UVA MDST 3703 2012-08-28](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061203/547d1d2f5806b5e53f8b486d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The humanities are at the centerMany departments fall within history, literature, or philosophy
![Page 12: UVA MDST 3703 2012-08-28](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061203/547d1d2f5806b5e53f8b486d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Scholars interpret and reinterpret texts(literature, historical records, law, religion)

Scholars make arguments

All of these forms depend up writing
