Blue whale breaching: Thinking through the first class of 2014, WUaS Bachelor's degree program, 2 required courses? Humanities & Biology w Programming

Thinking through the first class of 2014 in the WUaS Bachelor's degree program:

Two required World University and School 1st year Bachelor courses in 2014? ...

1
a Humanities course - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Humanities (v-a-v Reed College's), for writing skills, and so much more,


AND

2
a required Biology course, with a computer programming component http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Biology ?


... as well as distribution requirements, and 32 courses total, over 4 years ... all free, all online, and with MIT OCW as the academic standard?


And with focus on 'Flow,'

conference-style learning (like Reed's freshman humanities),

rigor &

fun ...



What would you add to this?
