I am an Architecture student at Drury College in Springfield, Missouri
and our school is a "liberal arts college" We are required to take
courses in all diciplines of the college wich include history, english,
philosophy, religion, sciences, and many others. There are schools out
there which are trying to integrate the system as a whole and keep from
outputing those who believe there is only one dicipline. It is working
very well and you can find Drury College on the web at:
http://www.drury.edu
The Hammonds School of Architecture AIAS has a home page also at:
http://HSA.drury.edu/
I am not the dean therefore I dont know all the aspects behind how it
works but you can check it out there.
