U.S. history. It prepares you for college courses by making demands upon you equivalent to those made by full-year introductory college courses. During this year, you will learn to assess historical materials—their relevance to a given interpretive problem, reliability, and importance—and to weigh evidence and interpretations presented in historical scholarship. You will develop the skills necessary to arrive at conclusion on the basis of an informed judgment and to present reasons and evidence clearly and persuasively in an essay.
