Haverford College

Haverford, PA

Haverford says that liberal education "requires a sense of the breadth of human inquiry and creativity. The human mind has explored the myriad facets of our physical and social environments; it has produced compelling works of art, literature, and philosophy. Every student is encouraged to engage a full range of disciplines - fine arts, the written word, empirical investigation, economy and society - in order to become a broadly educated person."
