How does the ancient world connect to the present day? How can I successfully write—and publish—a best-selling novel? When and how do languages evolve over time? What role does literature play in giving a voice to marginalized communities? How can understanding historical events help us address current social issues? How can I use my knowledge to engage in activism and advocate for social change?

Choosing a college to attend can be intimidating, but it doesn’t have to be. At the core of this decision is a question—a question that lives deep inside of you. Maybe it keeps you up at night or puzzles you while you’re in class. Maybe you’re reminded of it during your favorite club or when you’re out with your friends.

As a student in the College of LAS at Illinois, you’ll get to explore those individual questions. And you’ll discover their answers through your own research, creativity, and growth. Your journey of investigating what you find most important will set you up for success, so that you go on and change your world.

Whatever your questions, whatever answers you seek, there is a place for you in the humanities at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
