- a_techwriter_00 4y agoConfessions is on the program Sophomore year, as are excerpts from Summa Theologica. I vaguely remember one of the differences between the campuses being that Annapolis students read some Calvin and Santa Fe students read something else, but I don't remember what it was.
- bandrami 4y agoAugustine, Aquinas, and Anselm are all on the list. Most of Sophomore year is spent reading late antique and medieval Christian writings.
- wyclif 4y agoYes, it's missing crucial works like Cur Deus Homo and On the Incarnation by St Athanasius as well as some of the ones you mention, but I think some of those are in the curriculum if you look a little harder. One needn't be a Christian to benefit from such works; they are foundational to Western civilisation.
