| UNIQUE/SPECIAL PROGRAMS |
|
Our distinctive curriculum, called the Civic Arts, prepares students to be effective citizens, recognizing that they will need practical wisdom to participate in their community and enrich their lifetime of experiences. The civic arts program encompasses four main components: the focused calendar, major/commons courses, competencies and service learning projects.
At Tusculum College true learning begins when you have the opportunity to focus on one subject at a time. Tusculum College follows a "focused calendar" curriculum, which allows students to concentrate on only one course for three-and-one-half weeks eliminating the distraction of having to prepare for other courses at the same time. The focused calendar allows students to connect the subject matter of the course to their lives and the life of the community more directly than is normally possible through field trips, laboratory work, and many other out-of-classroom experiences |
