Mission Statement

The Chinese, Communication Studies, English, English as a Second Language (ESL), French, Humanities, Japanese, Library, Philosophy, Spanish, and Writing Center programs are part of the School of Communication, Humanities & Languages and, as such, have developed the following mission statement:

“The Norco College School of Communication, Humanities & Languages is a pursuit of an interdisciplinary study of the arts by selecting among courses in historical context, creative writing, and ideas and interpretation of the arts. In the Humanities & Languages core course, students will experience the theory and practice of the arts in a workshop setting and, in ensemble courses, will gain practical experience in at least one area of creative writing. Courses in the historical context and interpretation of the arts will enable students to understand how style, subject matter and materials may respond to different motivations and purposes."
