Montserrat is an innovative first-year program at the College of the Holy Cross that provides students with a dynamic introduction to the liberal arts. By linking a first-year seminar to an interdisciplinary cluster and residence hall, Montserrat invites students into a lively intellectual and social community that encourages engagement with a broad range of themes and issues, and that fuels an enduring quest for intellectual, personal and spiritual growth.
Montserrat seminars are organized within one of six clusters grouped by interdisciplinary theme (Contemporary Challenges, Core Human Questions, Divine, Global Society, Natural World, and Self).
