Family is experienced and understood in many ways. Social, legal, and demographic changes shape how families are formed and recognized in the United States. These shifts influence communication within families and larger societal discourses about what constitutes “family.” Family communication scholars have long called for greater attention to a wider range of family experiences. This course examines the communicative experiences of diverse and underrepresented families.

What does it mean to be labeled an African American dramatist? A Latino/a poet? A transgender novelist? An Asian American essayist? A Native American environmental writer? How do the varied experiences and backgrounds of authors writing from diverse subject positions inform, mark, and/or transform their writing? How do the works of these writers fit into, conflict with, actively resist, or even redefine the American Literary canon as it has been traditionally understood? These questions and more will be explored in a chronological framework through extensive reading of literature from: a) American communities of color; b) postcolonial peoples; c) immigrant and/or diasporic peoples; or d) LGBTQ communities. This course will focus on the literary and cultural texts of one or more of these groups with an emphasis on the cultural, political, and historical contexts that surround them. This course fulfills the Historical Perspectives requirement in the English major. Prerequisites: ENGL 120, ENGL 121, or ENGL 190

This course explores the conventions and innovations of Indigenous Futurisms, an artistic movement in which Indigenous artists imagine futures, pasts, and presents through science fiction and related speculative genres. While settler colonial narratives often relegate Indigeneity to the past, Indigenous Futurisms seek to reclaim timelines, mythologies, ancestral knowledge, oral histories, and technologies as a means to envision, inspire, and assert sovereignty and agency now and in the future. Though the course will primarily focus on literary works, there will also be opportunities to examine how Indigenous Futurisms are expressed through other media such as film, visual arts, and gaming. Often Indigenous Futurisms intersect with environmental literature, Indigiqueer/LGBTQIA2S+ literature, and spiritual literature. Course readings may include, but are not limited to Walking the Clouds: An Anthology of Indigenous Science Fiction; Love Beyond Body, Space, and Time: An Indigenous LGBT Anthology; The Marrow Thieves; Future Home of the Living God; and various works by Stephen Graham Jones. This course satisfies the WAC Writing to Learn requirement, a core Integration in the Humanities requirement, and the Diversity, Inclusion, and Social Justice requirement. Prerequisite: ENGL 106, 120, 121, or 190.

This course is a comprehensive introduction to the most pressing issues and questions concerning disability. Students will encounter and critically evaluate longstanding stereotypes and biases about the disadvantages of disability. This course examines disability primarily from a philosophical perspective, yet readings from other disciplines will also be used throughout the course. Some of the central questions examined in the course include: What is disability? Is disability merely a medical condition? In what ways do societal barriers disable? How does economic class impact access to educational, medical and social resources? Does disability itself make a person worse off or is it only social stigmatization and lack of accommodation that makes the lives of those with disabilities worse? How have those with disabilities been disadvantaged in the US? What is the basis for human dignity? What conceptual frameworks allow us to uphold the dignity of those with severe disabilities? Which behaviors and assumptions threaten the equality and dignity of those with disabilities? Prerequisite: PHIL 110

This course either introduces diverse expressions of Christian spirituality or focuses on topics within a distinctly Christian spirituality according to the discretion of the instructor such as Christian styles of worship, Christian understandings of sacramentality (especially Christian marriage), or stages of spiritual formation. Students will consider methodological issues in the academic study of spirituality. Emphasis is placed on a wide reading in the Christian tradition of both primary and secondary literature in order to assist the student in grasping the integral link between the lived faith of Christians and the theological articulation of that faith.
