From Caitlin Clark to Lebron James, we are living in a rich era for witnessing how gender informs the way sports are structured, experienced, and portrayed. Using communication theories, the paradox of how gendered norms are both challenged and reinforced in every aspect of sport, from the locker room to the cheering section, will be explored. Using historical and modern examples, class readings and activities will change students to ponder the discursive relationship between gender and the complexities of sport in our society. This class allows students to assess their own experiences and views of sport, gender, and society. We will engage in critical reflection on how gender ideas are manifested in sport communication, and examine the social and cultural contexts affecting sport communication. The ultimate goal is for students to be more informed, critical consumer of, and participants in, sport. This course counts toward a Communication Studies major/minor, a Sports Studies minor, and it is an elective course for Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies (WGSS).

This course uses literature to investigate how female athletes use their sport and their bodies to fight for women's rights and to change our world. In 1894-1895, Annie Londonderry biked around the world and spoke out for equality. Frances Willard advocated for the eight-hour workday, equal pay for women, and suffrage, then learned to ride a bike at age 53, and wrote about the freedom biking gave to women. In the winter of 1912 in New York, women walked 170 miles in Suffrage Hikes advocating for their right to vote. These women paved the way for athlete-authors such as Lynne Cox (who held the world record for swimming the English Channel) and Maxine Kumin (who, along with being U.S. Poet Laureate and a Pulitzer Prize winner, was a collegiate swimmer and rower). These and other great women writers explore their sports and their bodies in ways that both reflect and contest societal restrictions and expectations. This course will use their texts and other essays, articles, short stories, novels, and poetry from the late 1800s to today to explore the intersections of women, sport, and the body in literature. This course is ideal for students studying literature, gender, and various facets of physical education, sport, health, and human development. Texts may include: A WHOLE OTHER BALL GAME: WOMEN'S LITERATURE ON WOMEN'S SPORT, AROUND THE WORLD ON TWO WHEELS, WHEEL WITHIN A WHEEL, SWIMMING TO ANTARCTICA, CARRIE SOTO IS BACK, and GIRL RUNNER. Additionally, we will venture out of the classroom for some women's sports...maybe even play a little ourselves... and invite pro and semi-pro athletes in as guest speakers. This course satisfies the WAC Writing to Learn requirement as well as an Integrations in the Humanities requirement; the Diversity, Inclusion, & Social Justice requirement; and a Women, Gender, & Sexuality Studies major and minor requirement. Prerequisite: ENGL 106, 121 or 190.
