In one college guide I read that Reed College has a “great books” curriculum along the lines of St. John’s in Annapolis. The Reed website doesn’t seem to agree. Can anyone fill me in?
This is what the guide would mean:
http://www.reed.edu/humanities/Hum110/
It’s a two-semester freshman course, the only required course.
Hum 110 might well be considered a “Great Books” class, and all freshmen are required to take it. But this only represents two freshman courses. Apart from Hum 110, the curriculum is basically like that of other liberal arts colleges (although the senior thesis requirement is unusual).
