B.A. in Liberal Studies Program Fall Schedule of Classes (PDF)

In your first quarter, you take a course called The Art of Learning, the first step in creating your own area of concentration and your degree committee. Along with all B.A. students, you take core courses in liberal arts and multicultural training and complete your senior thesis.

Otherwise, the individualized degree has courses and independent studies that match your specialized interests. As an Antioch student you also may enroll in and get credit for classes at other colleges and universities, with approval from your faculty adviser.
