WGST 1512 - Local Arts/Humanities: Introduction to Gender Studies in the U.S.


This Local Theme course uses the methods and insights of the arts and humanities to explore the central question of what it means to be a member of a “local” community. Through the study of the experiences of different peoples, cultures, and communities in our city, our region, or our nation, students will be able to better understand the complexity and diversity of the society in which we live. Students are introduced to the contemporary and foundational questions surrounding gender and its intersections with other structures of inequality, with an emphasis on national and regional examples. Students examine those complex questions of identity and power with an application of theories from a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds. May not be taken for credit and for a grade if credit has been received for WGST 1101  or WGST 1502 .
