School of Humanities
Ouachita Baptist University holds strong to the tradition of a liberal arts education, combining a central CORE curriculum with major and minor fields of study. The School of Humanities is home to four academic departments, all focusing on language and communications. The departments of English, modern foreign languages, mass communications and speech communications focus on their bodies of knowledge, but each also seeks to find the connections that bring the fields together.
The Humanities faculty is talented, experienced and dedicated to individualized attention to students. Serving as teachers, academic advisors and mentors, the faculty works to encourage and challenge each student.
I hope you look at the information on this site and click to see more on each department. I would be more than pleased to visit with you about Ouachita in general or the departments of the School of Humanities in particular.
