Liberal Arts

Liberal arts at its foundation is meant to create engaged the thinkers and members of our community by providing the rich cultural context for why we're here and what we learn and how that matters.

I figured out that Louisiana Tech was the place for me whenever I came to campus for the first time, and I just realized it's a community. You're a person here on Tech, you're not just another number, and everyone on at Tech, like the first day, even today, no matter what time it is, it feels like they're not putting on a front. But they genuinely want you here, and they genuinely care.

We have a variety of study abroad opportunities that are largely housed within the College of Liberal Arts, and many of them are academic specific, and some of them are open for a variety of general education students.

So the in-processing here at Tech for the aviation parliament is pretty simple, actually. So they really walk you through the steps. You learn to crawl ,then walk, and then run. So they really like to break down and explain everything up front. They don't just throw you into an airplane, they make sure you're ready. And then once they feel that you're ready and you feel that you're ready, then they'll give you an airplane to fly with an instructor and just kind of build up from there.

The Liberal Arts is not merely about learning of dates and names, but rather learning the kinds of things that are foundational to our humanity.
