The Western Civilization Program at the University of Kansas

Abstract

For over four decades large numbers of undergraduates at the University of Kansas have had to pass through the Western Civilization requirement on their way to the baccalaureate degree. For some it has been one of the most important and lasting educational experiences of their university years, for others a necessary but inscrutable evil to be endured and survived, and doubtless for most something in between.
