The college curriculum centers on historical inquiry and the process of “doing history.” As students study the Grand Canyon as a particular place, its people, and events through time, they also analyze primary documents, interrogate historical arguments, examine historiographical shifts, and practice building their own historical interpretations. Student products include traditional papers, websites, PowerPoint shows, documentaries, exhibits, and public presentations.
