<p>I think saying “Liberal Arts” is too general. We need to talk fields here.</p>
<p>Penn’s best Liberal Arts programs, I’d say, are English, History, Anthropology, Psychology, Linguistics and Philosophy. Sociology and Political Science are strong, too. I’ve heard good things about our Classics department but am not familiar at all.</p>
<p>What I think that stands out about Penn liberal arts is languages. I don’t know of any other institution teaches as many languages as Penn does. That’s not to say either that French or Spanish is diluted here; those departments are very strong, too. But if you’re interested in anything from Pashtu to Twi to Telugu (the Italian of India!), we probably got it. </p>
<p>Penn language center is also very accomodating about trying to find you language study in something you want. Though we still don’t have Finnish, which a friend of mine wanted, Sicilian, which another friend wanted, or Indonesian (which I am actually interested in but haven’t asked about).</p>
