The main focus of this course is to study the relationship between form and meaning. Students learn to observe and identify such structural elements as plot/character/point of view/tone, symbol, diction and how these interact to produce meaning. The course will focus on helping students recognize the patterns that enrich the works, the themes that these patterns suggest, and the relationships between the significant elements of the work and the themes. Students are expected to write a 1000-word essay that meets specific criteria.

The course examines how literature interprets the human condition. Formal analysis (looking at the organization of a work) provides many insights about a literary work, but we can also ask questions about perspective, attitudes, assumptions and social settings. To this end, students in a thematic course should learn to recognize a work’s literary themes, cultural context and value system. To pass this course, students are expected to write a 1000-word essay that meets specific criteria.

HUMANITIES

Humanities (Knowledge & World Views) pursue the general goals of: developing logical thought and recognizing its limitations; understanding various ways of acquiring knowledge and how those ways have developed historically; and examining systems of understanding. Knowledge and World Views courses help students understand different views of humanity and of knowledge through the use of a multi-disciplinary approach. This understanding will equip students to analyze, synthesize, and evaluate knowledge claims and world views.

This course will introduce students to pseudoarchaeology, or “non-scientific beliefs of the human past”. Students will explore how the goals and methods of archaeology fit within science, what it means to make pseudoscientific claims, and why conspiracy theories are so popular in archaeology. We will then explore popular pseudoscientific claims ranging from the existence of Bigfoot, to theories of ancient astronauts who visited humans thousands of years ago, to the origins and evidence for Atlantis and other “lost” civilizations. Throughout, students will learn skills to combat these claims, and will better appreciate how to critically evaluate statements about the past using archaeological evidence. Finally, this course will put into context why pseudoscience is so dangerous for the practice and perception of archaeology, and why this is a critical contemporary issue facing many human-centered studies.

** This course will be offered online – students are expected to purchase the ingredients for their recipes and be prepared to cook in the comfort of their home during class**

We eat to fulfill nutritional and cultural needs as well as for simple enjoyment. Food and drink be it novel or traditional has long shaped how humans relate to each other. This course aims to explore the world of food from a historical perspective combining theoretical and practical approaches to understanding what we eat. This course will demonstrate how food is instrumental to the formation of identity through the study of gender, colonization, religion and nationalism. The growing popularity of food history in recent years has led us to seek a deeper understanding of our dietary choices in order to better comprehend how we construct the social categories and economic systems, which shape the world we live in today. Students will make use of active learning techniques combining cooking, tasting and discussion through the use of photo-journals and exams.

Course Structure: This course is structured as half theory and half practice. As such, students should expect to spend the first half of each class learning about food history and the second half of the class cooking historical dishes. Students taking this course will learn some basic cooking techniques as well as kitchen safety practices. A variety of recipe choices ranging in complexity will be offered to students in order to accommodate different levels of culinary knowledge.

Ingredients and Material: Cooking is a necessary component of this course. As such, students are expected to budget a sum of roughly fifty dollars for the purchasing of ingredients and materials over the course of the semester. In order to offset these costs, attempts have been made to keep course readings as accessible and inexpensive as possible.

Students will be required to purchase the ingredients for their recipe

Human sexuality is profoundly diverse. It is shaped by both human biology and an array of sociocultural factors. This course examines the historical, legal, and cultural contexts of sexuality and gender. Understanding contemporary sexual matters requires considering how sexuality varies through time and place and how it is modeled, shaped, and even manipulated by individuals and institutions. The readings will explore sex and gender as social issues influenced by culture, politics, economics, media, education, medicine, law, family, and friends. This course applies social theory and methods to the study of sexuality and gender. The readings will permit students to reflect on the dual themes of social construction and social control. The course will show that some social institutions and some individuals in society have more power to control and define a society’s sexual agenda than others. At the same time, social control is usually met with social resistance, and the readings feature examples of successful individual and cultural resistance to societal expectations and oppression.

(Prerequisite: Introduction to College English, 603-101-MQ or 603-101-CL)

The main focus of this course is to study the relationship between form and meaning. Students learn to observe and identify such structural elements as plot/character/point of view/tone, symbol, diction and how these interact to produce meaning. The course will focus on helping students recognize the patterns that enrich the works, the themes that these patterns suggest, and the relationships between the significant elements of the work and the themes. Students are expected to write a 1000-word essay that meets specific criteria.

We will then explore popular pseudoscientific claims ranging from the existence of Bigfoot, to theories of ancient astronauts who visited humans thousands of years ago, to the origins and evidence for Atlantis and other “lost” civilizations. Throughout, students will learn skills to combat these claims, and will better appreciate how to critically evaluate statements about the past using archaeological evidence.

We eat to fulfill nutritional and cultural needs as well as for simple enjoyment. Food and drink be it novel or traditional has long shaped how humans relate to each other. This course aims to explore the world of food from a historical perspective combining theoretical and practical approaches to understanding what we eat. This course will demonstrate how food is instrumental to the formation of identity through the study of gender, colonization, religion and nationalism.

Students will make use of active learning techniques combining cooking, tasting and discussion through the use of photo-journals and exams.

Course Structure: This course is structured as half theory and half practice. As such, students should expect to spend the first half of each class learning about food history and the second half of the class cooking historical dishes.

This course will demonstrate how food is instrumental to the formation of identity through the study of gender, colonization, religion and nationalism. The growing popularity of food history in recent years has led us to seek a deeper understanding of our dietary choices in order to better comprehend how we construct the social categories and economic systems, which shape the world we live in today. Students will make use of active learning techniques combining cooking, tasting and discussion through the use of photo-journals and exams.

Course Structure: This course is structured as half theory and half practice. As such, students should expect to spend the first half of each class learning about food history and the second half of the class cooking historical dishes. Students taking this course will learn some basic cooking techniques as well as kitchen safety practices. A variety of recipe choices ranging in complexity will be offered to students in order to accommodate different levels of culinary knowledge.

Ingredients and Material: Cooking is a necessary component of this course. As such, students are expected to budget a sum of roughly fifty dollars for the purchasing of ingredients and materials over the course of the semester. In order to offset these costs, attempts have been made to keep course readings as accessible and inexpensive as possible.

Students will be required to purchase the ingredients for their recipe
