HISTORY

Historians use a variety of sources to explain how human relationships have changed over time. Considering events across centuries and around the world, they are storytellers whose narratives are rooted in reality, and specific to a time and place. They are also scientists who weigh evidence to make persuasive arguments about the past, and understand how it affects the present.
