How does the MAPPS’ “liberal arts” academic program benefit students?
MAPPS provides all students the academic building blocks to become effective thinkers. The cumulative effect upon the student is the process of “learning to learn.” Most of the courses in the MAPPS academic program do not prepare a student for a particular career or college major. Instead, the program does teach in depth the skills of reading, writing, and thinking, which should allow the student to meet any future academic challenge.
