[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Columbia's core, for example, requires the kids to read the Iliad, Odyssey, Aeneid, Plato, Confessions, Inferno, and much much more. Also a choice between a music or art 101, and a really basic science requirement. Discussing Plato isn't for everyone, on the other hand lots of kids are surprised to find they enjoy it. Still, some kids find all the requirements prevent them from taking courses in their preferred subjects.[/quote] You'd think they'd update it for the 21st century. Greece isn't exactly leading the world anymore....[/quote] Don't worry, there's also plenty of Jane Austen and Dostoyevsky and 20th century writers in Lit Hum. [/quote]
