In this course, we will explore what makes a city-space. This means that we will examine the qualities necessary for a city to take on an identity as well as who gets to control the ways that cities and their inhabitants are represented. Through the semester, we will move from the macro-level (how cities are built) to the micro-level (how people shape cities through their experiences). Projects will include writing about what makes a city, producing an ethnographic account of how people use city spaces, and conducting research on a relevant city site. Please note that this course may require that you purchase SimCity 4 ($20) on Steam. The writing load for this course is a minimum of 15 pages of formal revised writing. This course satisfies the Writing Across the Curriculum Writing Intensive requirement.
