HUMN 303 Week 1 Discussion 1: The Value of the Humanities Week 1 Discussion The Value of the Humanities: The study of humanities is "Living" to me. Learning about cultures and the way other... s live. I'm an officer and ex-military so I have and still see different kinds of nationalities.

While in a business or technical program, humanities teaches us the basic blueprint of how we became who we are and al about everything around us and why it is so.

I was in business and sales for quite some time and it was not a walk in the park, you deal with and encounter all walks of life and one bust be prepared and familiar to not only do their job, but do it effectively, and efficiently to the best of their ability. That is why, at least in my own opinion, why we can academically relate humanities to a business or technical degree. [Show More]
