Cornell University
Ithaca, NY
Cornell University says, "The faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences believes that each student's education should have certain common qualities. These include familiarity with several different ways of knowing that are reflected in the various disciplines and fields of study. In addition to these general areas of knowledge, students acquire effective writing and quantitative skills, study foreign languages, achieve cultural breadth, and concentrate on one particular field through which they deepen their imaginative and critical thinking as fully as possible."
