Bucking a Trend: Humanities Programs Are Growing at U.W.

It’s no secret that there have been fewer pupils pursuing the humanities at colleges and universities across the country. The number of students seeking degrees in English, history, literature and other humanities disciplines has been taking a significant hit at most major institutions.
