ADAMS Liberal Arts No one should sjiecialize to the point where he knows nothing other than his own field. Over- specialization is one of the gerat dangers facing students and educators today.

Courses falling into this classification are designed to enlarge the hori- zons of a student and adjust his perspective as well as train him in free thinking. Among the Liberal Arts and Humanities offered at N.A.C. are English, economics, political science, logic, mathematics, art. music, philosophy, psychology, and foreign affairs.
