Islamic Studies

Your week begins with Classical Arabic I, dissecting complex verb conjugations and root words. The professor patiently breaks down grammatical structures, making sense of dense texts. After a quick campus lunch, you head to an Islamic History lecture, tracing the rise of early caliphates and analyzing primary source documents. Later, you dedicate an hour to reviewing new Arabic vocabulary before meeting up with a friend from your dorm for a relaxed dinner, discussing weekend plans and current events on campus.
