Abstract: Specific curricular innovations in universities throughout the country which attempt to integrate academic majors in the humanities with additional, supplemental professional training are summarized in the program guide section of this document. Most of these programs are interdisciplinary, some including revised courses and internship experiences. Programs included are at both the baccalaureate and master's degree levels. The bibliography section contains material which explores the problems involved in preserving the integrity of the humanities. Much of the material examines the various career options which are provided by a humanistic education. Some articles explore specific career alternatives for humanities majors which are not normally considered by a student when making his choice of an academic major. Other articles focus specifically on curricular revision which might aid the student in expanding his career possibilities. (Author/TA)
