[MATHEDCC] liberal arts math courses suggestions WANTED

I am the latest in a string of teachers to direct our local CC's Liberal Arts
Mathematics course, and I've been searching through the MATHEDCC website for
ideas to support/expand my current subject matter plans.

The course description: "This course is... for the non-science liberal arts
major." Beyond that, an Intermediate Algebra pre-requisite and a suggested
list of topics that MAY be included, i.e., a blank slate for the instructor
to make his mark upon.

My personal bent is probability/statistics, but if any former/current liberal
arts math teachers out there would be willing to share ideas and/or cautions,
I'd be happy to hear them.

Thank you!
