On Brown’s website it states, " In addition to completing a concentration, you are expected to sample courses in the humanities, the social sciences, the life sciences, and the physical sciences. " Oh, that seems strangely like UChicago’s requirements for its liberal-arts Core. Brown wants its students to take the courses that UChicago has in its Core, so they are clearly important, but UChicago has a limited number of courses you can take to fulfill the requirement whereas maybe Brown let’s you take any course within the general fields. Brown lets it students choose their courses, UChicago simply chooses the options you, as a student, can pick from.
