University Colloquium (3 hours)
The University Colloquium (UC 101) is the core of the Liberal Studies Program. This course will introduce students to the intellectual challenges that characterize the university community through common readings and experiences. It will also help them become more cognizant of their own strengths and of the areas in which they need more work, and to understand the role of a strong liberal arts education for all students regardless of their major.
The University Colloquium is required of all freshmen NAU students as of August 1999 or students transferring with less than 12 credit hours. You should plan to take the University Colloquium during your first year of study, but not during the same semester as ENG105. You must successfully complete this course by the time you have taken 30 credit hours. Students transferring to NAU with 12 credit hours or more and without AGEC or TGECC certification will take 3 additional hours of distribution studies in place of the University Colloquium.
