In AMCD 200, students learn about the historical and theoretical foundations of Cultural Studies as an academic discipline and use cultural theory to analyze a variety of cultural products and representations. In this course, students look specifically at dominant and subversive constructions of gender, race, ethnicity, national and sexual identities, and how these constructions are deployed through cultural practices and productions such as sports, film and television, folklore and popular culture, youth subcultures, music, and so on. For example, the course may contain units on "nation" and the creation of American mythologies; the process of hero-making in American history; stereotypes and the representation of race and ethnicity in television and film; representations of gender and sexuality in advertising; as well as a section on American music from jazz, blues, folk and roots music, to rock and roll, punk, and hip-hop.

Street art—including graffiti, murals, and other installations in public space—provides expressive avenues for marginalized voices, shapes urban space, and promotes competing visions of community development. In contrast to art that is created for museums or the commercial art market, street art is uniquely positioned to engage with social issues from a critical perspective. This class will involve an analysis of street art projects from the United States, situated in comparison with projects from around the world. Topics to explored include the history of street art over time (from its origins in graffiti to contemporary mural festivals); the impetus for street art in communities in the USA and globally; models for creating, preserving, and presenting street art; the institutionalization of street art; street art as it relates to diversity and inclusion; and, ultimately, the potential for street art to play a role in social change.

This Course focuses on analyzing and understanding Classical epic poetry, the ancient presentation of heroic figures and heroic exploits, and recognizing the influence of epic/heroic literature on the modern storytelling device of film. While the genre of epic is central to the course, other genres (both literary and cinematic) which present he-roic figures, e.g., tragedy, history, comedy, action, fantasy, will also be explored. Analyzing the works read or viewed via writing and class discussion will constitute the primary course activities; students will engage in reading, viewing and writing outside of class, while class time will include some writing, viewing and discussion. In order to allow am-ple time for discussion and analysis, the majority of films in their entirety will be viewed outside of class. The course grade will be based substantially on written analysis (i.e., essays, papers) of the texts and films studied. ENGL 203 may also be substituted for this course.

Building Communication Skills through Improvisation II is the second of the two-course sequence that introduces you to the world of applied improvisation. It is a cutting-edge course designed to help you continue building on the communication skills acquired and developed in COMM 246: Building Communication Skills through Improvisation. Unlike its predecessor, COMM 248:Building Communication Skills through Improvisation II is tailored more specifically for the professional world, training students to use improvisation as a tool for human communication, business, and organizational development. It uses different readings, higher-level assignments, and more complex improvisational techniques while maintaining its core focus on teamwork, creative problem-solving, oral communication, nonverbal communication, audience analysis, clarity, and adaptability.

Narrative Medicine Minor Appr
Writing to learn
Increasingly, education for nurses, physicians, and other healthcare professionals includes the practices of reading literature, writing reflectively, and engaging in role-play to learn how to care for patients (and for themselves). This is sometimes called narrative medicine. By focusing on stories (of the patient, the healthcare professional, and the cultures and systems in which both live) and therefore humanizing the often-impersonal world of the healthcare system, it improves the quality of care for patients and reduces burnout among healthcare professionals. In this course we will engage in practices of narrative medicine, reading and writing about literature as a means of understanding ourselves and others. The texts we'll read illuminate questions about pain and illness, empathy and the training of healthcare professionals, the health implications of racial and economic injustice, and the need for reformation of the healthcare system. This course satisfies a WAC Writing to Learn requirement and an Integrations in the Humanities requirement. It also satisfies a requirement for the Narrative Medicine minor. Prerequisites: ENGL 106, 121 or 190.

What are the connections between the making and reading of literature, the telling of and listening to stories, and the development of attention and resilience in humans? That is what this experimental and highly experiential course will explore. We will study writers’ creative decisions, asking questions such as why they chose specific genres (e.g., novel, memoir, poetry, drama), and how their decisions affect our reading experience and engage our aesthetic, intellectual, political, and spiritual imaginations. We will also engage in story-telling and story-listening practices, measuring the impact of those practices on our capacities to focus and concentrate, to read more closely, and to strengthen connection with others. Students should come ready for active participation in reading, listening, and telling stories. Readings will include texts from a range of genres, such as Ilya Kaminsky’s DEAF REPUBLIC, Quiara Alegría Hudes’ WATER BY THE SPOONFUL, Camille Dungy’s SOIL, and V. V. Ganeshananthan’s BROTHERLESS NIGHTS. Assignments will include a weekly journal of reading and creative practice and a collaborative research project. This is a good course for students wondering “what can I do with what I’m learning in English classes?” and those interested in narrative medicine, psychology and neuroscience, and humanities.

The Jane Austen Society writes, "In 2025 we'll mark the 250th birthday of Jane Austen—a literary icon who continues to entertain, delight, and inspire generations of readers." That last comment is, if anything, an understatement: Austen's novels have never gone out of print, been adapted into films and television miniseries, inspired spin-offs like Bridgerton, inspired reams of other fan fiction, motivated re-enactors, and even created memes. So it is altogether fitting and proper that we should mark her anniversary with a course devoted to her work. In ENGL 390, we will read a selection of Austen's six novels, including SENSE AND SENSIBILITY, PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, and PERSUASION; explore the major film adaptations; and study some of the best fan fiction, namely the superb play trilogy, CHRISTMAS AT PEMBERLEY by Lauren Gunderson and Margot Melcon (MISS BENNETT, THE WICKHAMS, and GEORGIA AND KITTY). Austen’s sharp social satire clearly still speaks to our own time, highlighting familial, relational, and community issues of gender, class, privilege, and social justice, all topics we will explore. This course satisfies both the Integrations in the Humanities and Global Perspectives core requirements, as well as a WAC Writing to Learn requirement. Prerequisite: ENGL 121 or 190.

This course is designed to introduce students to the filmmaking process, from script to screen. We will concentrate our attention on two main elements - understanding the technical concerns of narrative filmmaking (the apparatuses, learning camera functions and techniques, and using editing software), AND developing students' artistic voice through storytelling and film analysis. The course aims to strengthen students' ability to conceive and flesh out ideas that will lead to compelling, authentic, personally meaningful short films and give them the critical foundation of film study and production tools to execute their ideas. Students will begin to develop their own artistic vision and style through filmmaking.

The course introduces students to social, political, cultural, and economic developments from the American Civil War to the present day. It not only traces how ideas and lived experiences within each of those categories of historical analysis changed over time, but also shows how developments in each realm of American life shaped the others. It pays special attention to how American politics, institutions, and cultural norms emerged from—and produced—a changing role for the United States in its global context. It also interrogates how efforts to define American identity have both provided the terrain for inclusion and been used to justify the exclusion of various people, including racial, ethnic, and immigrant groups, people of different genders and sexual identities, and people of diverse religious and political beliefs.

Introduces students to historical reasoning. Students learn to analyze evidence from the past in context in order to explain how the past produced the ever-changing present. This course will look at the history of East Asia in regional and global contexts. Students will build a foundation by learning about the formative era of Chinese history in the first millennium BCE, focusing on the creation of Confucianism and the imperial system. They will follow East Asia’s emergence as a distinct historical region comprising China, Korea, and Japan, and the ties these countries maintained among themselves and with the rest of Asia. As they enter the early modern era, students will focus on connections between East Asia and the world, such as the silver economy. The class will conclude by looking at East Asia in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, with a special emphasis on global historical themes of colonialism and industrialization. Through this class, students will learn to analyze changes and continuities over long periods of time. They will also learn to frame historical events in their local specificity as well as in their common humanity.

Students today arguably face more pressure than ever not only to get a job but to find their purpose. 80% of college graduates say it is very or extremely important to seek purpose at work, but fewer than half of them find it (Gallup, 2019). “Work and the Good Life” is a mission-driven, interdisciplinary, educational experience for St. Thomas undergraduates wondering what work is worth spending the largest share of their adult waking hours doing. The course invites students to explore their values, ambitions, and concerns about working life while charting their course toward discovering work that matters to them and their communities. “Work and the Good Life” endeavors to bridge the “purpose gap” among St. Thomas students pursuing the good life in which they perform meaningful work integral to the common good.

Introduces students to the interdisciplinary field of Latin American Studies as well as the individuals, cultures, histories, politics, economics, and geographies that distinguish the region and its nations. Students learn different disciplinary approaches to analyzing Latin America (e.g. art history, political science, literature, sociology, and history) through course content, readings, and instruction as the course is rotated among affiliated faculty each semester offered. The interdisciplinary framework provides a number of different ways to think about Latin American society and challenges us to recognize the linkages and tensions that define the region, explored through topics such as social and economic variations, democracy and dictatorship, slavery and race relations, urban and rural societies, (im)migrations, gender and sexuality, citizenship and resistance, popular culture, and the Church and social justice. Exploring the major themes and disciplinary studies of Latin America help us integrate ideas about the region and its communities.

Why do we laugh when bad things happen to good people and what makes scary movies surprisingly funny to us? Most cultural traditions around the globe have long identified both music and humor as supremely human activities, profoundly tied to language, community, and social living. In this class we will take comedy seriously. We will look at and listen to movies, asking not only what makes them funny (or not) but also examining how music and sound reinforce the comedic effect of the film. Through weekly engagement with images and sounds from all over the world we will explore the ability of humor not only to challenge boundaries of social and cultural conventions but also redefine our relationships with fear and with things beyond our knowledge.

This unique course welcomes students of all musical backgrounds and abilities to explore the creative processes of collaborative music making. In the absence of notated music, the techniques and principles of Soundpainting will be studied toward understanding music’s creative structures. Students will meet in class twice a week, study learning materials for the course (reading, listening, discussion activies), toward applying ideas and skills to create together musical works of their own design. All students will learn to direct, improvise, and co-create music that reflects the expressive input of the group. Reflective study and dialogue on the creative process will facilitate critical understanding of how music expresses ideas about self, others, and community, and can generate deeply transformational change to those identities. Course assignment toward the final grade include: Three compositions; Two short written essays analyzing the creative processes of selected musicians; Low-Stakes reading summaries; Attendance and Engagement; Collaborative Community Vision.

This section explores the foundational claim in Christian theology that creation is brought into existence and sustained by a Creator, a claim that informs Catholic intellectual tradition and social teaching. We will consider questions such as: Does God care about how human beings treat creation? What guidance does scripture offer for how we ought to live on this planet? Is environmental destruction, such as the climate crisis, the result of human sin, or part of God's plan to bring about the end of the world? What are the implications of the conviction that God became human and lived on Earth? Can and ought theologians and scientists work together to overcome environmental problems? How is love of neighbor and commitment to the common good tied to care for creation?

Today’s world is very different from the one in which the biblical texts were composed. How can today’s reader find meaning in these ancient texts? This course will help to bridge the gap between the world of the texts and today’s world, especially in terms of differing value systems and differing understandings of the natural world. Furthermore, a growing religious pluralism is a part of today’s world, and so the Bible and the Christian tradition will be examined as parts of a larger matrix of cultures and religions. Finally, in bridging today’s world with the texts the course will identify, in the latter, resources that can be drawn on in working for the common good.

This section introduces you to foundational concepts and skills associated with Christian theology. The primary lens through which we will approach theological questions in this course is that of the common good. A standard definition of the common good in Catholic intellectual tradition comes from the Second Vatican Council: “the sum of those conditions of social life which allow social groups and their individual members relatively thorough and ready access to their own fulfillment.”

This section examines how technology shapes our identities and our relationships with nature, other people, and the transcendent. Does technology bring us closer to the natural world or make it harder to experience it? Does it help or hinder our relationships with other people and with God? We’ll look at historical examples, such as the impact of electric lights, and current technologies, like facial recognition technology and prosthetic enhancements of the body. The course readings will include a range of voices from Christian theology, from ancient to modern times, that offer insight on sharing a meaningful human life with others and discerning the presence of the divine in work, leisure, silence, and the natural world.

[Core] Signature Work
Open to all students, not only theology majors, the signature work in theology course is designed as a capstone experience to integrate a student’s entire college career, bringing fullness of expression to the University’s efforts through the liberal arts core to educate morally responsible leaders who, grounded in the Catholic intellectual tradition, think critically, act wisely, and work skillfully to advance the common good. There are two types of signature work in theology: signature work that is focused on contemporary challenges, or signature work that is focused on faith and the professions. Signature work that is focused on contemporary challenges will invite students to conduct research and/or experiential learning around matters of pressing concern according to the instructor’s discretion, such as fostering understanding across lines of religious difference; cultivating interfaith leadership; searching for beauty; establishing justice and peace; or responding to contemporary challenges such as environmental sustainability, immigration, or mass incarceration. Signature work that is focused on vocation may explore the integration of theology with a profession of the instructor’s choosing, such as the management professions, the legal professions, the medical professions, the public health professions, the psychological professions, or the engineering professions. Prerequisites: THEO 100 and a student must have at least 80 credits completed.

This section involves an examination of the views of various religions and ideologies on issues of justice and peace, with special attention to the Catholic and other Christian teachings on such issues as war and peace, violence, economic justice, the environment, criminal justice, and social justice. Special attention is given to how fundamental presuppositions and principles of each group studied affect their views on justice and peace, and contribute to or hinder dialogue and peaceful interaction with other groups. In addition to Christianity, students will study (at least) one far eastern worldview (e.g. Buddhism, Hinduism, Jainism), one tribal religion (Native American, African), Islam, and one secular worldview (e.g. Marxism, capitalism, secular humanism). Students are required to investigate one worldview in depth through a semester-long research project.

In the last half century religious diversity in the West has rapidly increased, bringing people from different religious traditions into daily contact. This has resulted in new conflicts, sometimes in violence, but also in new collaborations and friendships. Drawing on several approaches to interreligious conflict and relations, this course will examine the dynamic encounters that take place between and among people of different religious identities and ask students to reflect on their own role in religiously complex situations. Students will consider this interreligious reality and their role in it against the backdrop of their own individual relationship to spirituality, faith, and theology. To foster interreligious understanding beyond the classroom, students in this course will spend significant time outside the classroom directly engaging religious diversity.

This course attempts to offer a brief introduction to the fields of comparative theology and religious studies by studying various approaches to and conceptions of religion. At the end of the course, it will be important for students to have a grasp on the historical timeline, key figures, common texts and practices of each of the traditions covered throughout the semester. The main concern of the course is for students to develop a greater understanding of and appreciation for how religion is embedded in all dimensions of human experience, meaning that religion, despite the emphasis in the West, is not simply a matter of private beliefs, but has implications for our public life together. We will engage both historical and contemporary events as we attempt to understand how religion both shapes and is shaped by the political, cultural and social dimensions of our world.

Students will produce and present a play while they learn about key aspects of introductory theater. This course will examine the customs and conventions of theatrical art and management, such as acting, directing, and stage managing as well as design (costume, light, set and sound) by engaging first-hand in these practices. In addition, students will be introduced to historical theater movements and theory as a way of providing context for their own work. The class culminates in a live performance that is created, performed, stage managed and produced by the class. Theater production is not just acting, so students interested in behind-the-scenes work, design and other event management should consider this course. This class satisfies the core Fine Arts requirement.
