Social Sciences 4

CONTENTS: The development of institutional and cultural patterns in Western civilization. The course concentrates on the development of the modern industrialized society including its social, scientific, sociological, and political concomitants.

COMMENTS: This course suffers from the basic problem of all elementary GE courses, to wit, that it must try to give the student a technique of analysis within its field without being able to delve too deeply into the field itself. Within this limitation, however, this course was quite well received by '55, which felt that it had received some basic understanding of the techniques of the social sciences from it.
