29: Beginning with the Fall 2007 term, HUX will begin posting
Registration materials on our website instead of sending
them to students via postal mail. We will also put course
guides on their respective Blackboard course sites instead
of mailing them out (24 hours after you register for a class,
go to the Blackboard website (see our instructions).
Once logged in, you'll find the marterials in the Course
Documents section. If you cannot get these materials from
the internet, or prefer to receive them by regular mail,
contact Lisa Ayres (layres@csudh.edu) in the HUX office
to be put on the postal mailing list for either Registration
materials or courses guides (or both).
We've updated our GWE writing exam page.
NEW: Get the HUX Guide to Doing
Research in the Humanities before preparing your

Why
Do Your Master's Degree with HUX?
Traditional
M.A. programs require attendance at the host university,
and typically only accept full-time students who are able
to put aside the rest of their lives while they pursue the
degree. On the other hand, many online graduate programs
lack qualified faculty, may not be fully accredited by a
regional accrediting agency, don't provide a path for those
lacking internet access or experience, and may fail to live
up to their promises.
The
Humanities Master of Arts (HUX) program combines the best
of traditional graduate education with the best of distance
learning. It offers a quality, non-residential advanced
degree program to students worldwide regardless of their
ability to get online. If you have regular mail service,
you can do a degree with HUX. HUX allows students to adapt
the program to their interests and goals. It provides the
kind of broad exposure to the Humanities (history, literature,
philosophy, art, and music) that is so useful in preparing
one to think clearly, express oneself thoughtfully, and
be ready to work competently in many different contexts.
People who want to teach at the secondary or community college
level, or to enhance their current teaching career, have
found that their schools accept a HUX degree with sufficient
units in one of our disciplines in place of a philosophy
master's degree, a history master's degree, an art history
master's degree, a music master's degree, or a literature
master's degree. Students interested in independent study
at distance find HUX to be a good fit. HUX faculty and staff
are highly qualified and care about their students.
The
HUX program has been a leader in distance education at the
MA level since its inception in 1974. The last 30 years
have brought many improvements, including the addition of
online technologies. But HUX maintains a firm commitment
to provide a graduate education in the Humanities area of
the liberal arts to anyone who meets its basic academic
requirements, regardless of his or her computer experience.

is right for you.
