Many people view history merely as a set of dates and facts to be memorized, but history is much more than that. History is an organic and ever-changing discipline, periodically discovering new evidence and revising old commonly held beliefs. It’s not enough to learn history itself; one must learn from history the true essence of the human experience. 

Each season will focus on topics from different courses in history including seasons 1: HIST 111 Ancient World Civilizations, 2: HIST 112 Modern World Civilizations, 3 U.S. Hist to 1900, 4 U.S. Hist 1900 to the present, and 5 Civics/Economics.
