In the College (and I believe the other schools as well, but I am not as sure about them) a minimum of two semesters of Theology are required. The first course must be either "The Problem of God" (taught by many different professors so each section has its own spin) or Introduction to Biblical Literature. For the second semester students may choose an intermediate-level elective; there is quite a broad range of these, so while many students choose to focus on Christianity a/o Catholicism, many others study other world religions or a variety of religions.

Sound like thin gruel to me. It is hard enough to get a handle on one religion, much less several. Like the old description of the river Platte: a mile-wide and an inch deep. By the way, did they use The work of Professor James Collins in the "God" course?
