Some students go to college to obtain specialized knowledge as well as opportunities to improve the ability of finding a job. Others use this chance to develop comprehensive quality which may be available for a whole life time. When it comes to the topic whether college students should take history courses even their majors have nothing to do with this discipline, different people may give various answers. From my point of view, although history knowledge is useful to our daily life, we can learn it ourselves instead of taking courses.

To start with, I really admit the important role that history knowledge plays in both of work and life. To work, even to science fields, knowing about some historical facts will provide us enlightenment. For example, being a biology teacher, I always use stories of scientific history to attract students’ interesting at the beginning of the class, which is also an effective way to help them widen their thinking. To life, knowing about some famous historical figures will bring us wisdom in judging or evaluating hot phenomenon in modern society as well as encourage us to be positive and brave when facing difficulties. In a word, only we learn about history can we live a wiser and more intellectual life.

On the other hand, different from science, there is no need to learn history by taking courses, especially for college students who can enjoy themselves in the library. In my opinion, the understanding of history comes from reading books rather than listening to teachers’ lectures. While we only absorb one or a few teachers’ thoughts, we can learn much more from books which are written by people holding different views and with various backgrounds. In brief, we can study history by ourselves only if we choose the right books and analyse historical facts ourselves. Another benefit of self-study is that we can arrange our time more flexibly.

To conclude, history knowledge is of great importance for both of our work and life, as it provides us cherished experience and lessons, which may prevent us from making the same mistake. However, I strongly argue that the best way of studying history is by self-reading rather than taking courses.
