Madye Moore Assignment 4

The study of liberal arts has impacted my life the past couple years by helping me to become a more well rounded person both academically and in my daily life. Through my liberal arts education at Henry Clay, I haven't just focused on one subject over another, I have taken advanced classes in all areas, which have like I said, enhanced my learning by not forcing one subject over another. The study of literature has, and will continue to, enhance my life by causing me to find a deeper meaning in what I read besides just the words on the page. Literature also forces me to have an open mind because it shows how there are often times many interpretations of one text that differ from my own. The study of humanities rounds out my education because it ties all of my subjects together in a way, and provides an escape from the cookie cutter subjects we are forced to take, as well as providing a more creative outlet to express your feelings.
