FYE100LM - MCC Essentials - Liberal Arts A Liberal Arts education is about more than acquiring skills to do a job. It is about developing as a human being and engaging with humanity in the context of community, scholarship, and profession. This course will invite students to embark on a journey of reflection and exploration, laying the foundation for their Liberal Arts education. We will explore the difference between work and vocation, asking ourselves: who am I, and where do I fit into my community and my world? We will examine values around finances and work-life balance. We will explore the concept of being part of a learning community, asking what do I need, and what do I have to offer to others? In addition to providing a philosophical framework for the degree, this course will build practical skills, including academic and career planning, financial literacy, and accessing campus resources. This course is required in the first semester for new students. Students transferring in 15+ college credits with a CGPA of 3.0 or better may elect to waive the course. Prerequisites: None
