HIST 1512 - Local Arts/Humanities: Issues in US History


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, societies, cultural traditions, and modes of expression in communities at the city, regional, or national level students will be able to better understand the complexity and diversity of the society in which we live. HIST 1512 uses examples drawn from different times, places, movements, and moments in U.S. history to explore questions about historical change and continuity over time. Sections of this course may focus on the history of one particular U.S. region to enable students to appreciate how people in a specific part of the country experienced nationwide and worldwide events and processes. Other sections of this course may explore the dynamic relationships and experiences of people within and between communities or regions in the United States. May not be taken for credit and for a grade if credit has been received for HIST 1160 .
