The excitement
of life at Vanderbilt is highly visible in the College of Arts and
Science. The College derives its strength from the range of its
academic offerings, from the quality of the faculty who are here
to teach, and from the quality of students who are here to learn.
Fortunate in
its ability to attract and retain a superior faculty, the College
of Arts and Science has more than 300 full-time professors who complement
their achievements in the classroom with significant research and
writing.
Liberal Arts:
The liberal arts encourage individuals to live their lives with
a sense of purpose, context and relatedness. The College of Arts
and Science prepares students to think precisely, to reason clearly,
and to judge wisely -- all practical considerations in the pursuit
of constructive and satisfying lives and in the practice of today's
professions and vocations.
