General Education
The FYE is a year-long topical course designed to introduce students to college work, college life, and college citizenship. FYEs are taught by a faculty member, assisted by a Course Assistant, an exceptional upper-class L-R student. Topics range from the History of Science to Don Quixote, from Southern Culture & Food to Music & Art, from Decision Theory to the History of Rock n' Roll.
