The Undergraduate College of Human Development

The College of Human Development is housed in Kelly Quad. It is devoted to the exploration of what it means to be human, in all its dimensions — physical, social, and cultural.

Students will be exposed to the perspectives on humanness of a variety of disciplines. The College is home to all those with interests in human health, development, origins, and history in all its richness. Health professionals, biological scientists, psychologists, anthropologists, social scientists, physical scientists, engineers, and humanists with an interest in authentic understanding of the human condition — all find homes here and all contribute to the rich mix of insights and perspectives that is the human world.

    Mr. Potato HeadSince its invention in the 1950’s Mr. Potato Head has been a classic toy in American culture. Very few toys have seen use over multiple generations. Mr. Potato head look and feel has evolved over time just as the culture of our country has. How many toys can claim that it was the first toy advertised on television, or was in a prime-time Super Bowl commercial?

    Orientation may be your first day of college, but we are going to go back in time. Bring an open-mind because we have some fun activities planed. Ignore what your mother said about playing with your food. Roll up your sleeves and let us use our little spud to explore What it Means to Be Human!

  • Summer 2009
    Summer Sessions

    Attending Summer Sessions allows you to fill in missing courses, try something new and different, or speed the progress toward your degree. Many students say that Summer Sessions' format of two six-week terms allows them to spend part of their summer working toward their individual academic goals, while providing time to spend with friends and family. Students are permitted to enroll in up to 9 credits per summer session. Summer enrollment begins Monday, April 13.
