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.

The history of the ancient world-its politics, philosophy, and literature is mostly silent or slanderous about the lives of women. In most times and places their role in public life and their ability to express themselves were severely circumscribed. However, a study of archaeological material, representations in art and literature, and the occasional writing of women themselves allows us to look behind the curtain that veiled their lives. This class will examine the evidence to reconstruct a picture of what the life of women was like in Egyptian, Greek, and Roman culture throughout the ancient Mediterranean.

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.

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.

Even in the land of Super Targets and Big Mac hamburgers, bigger is not always better--at least not in terms of literature. Short stories, because of their compression and intensity, offer lively plots and constant surprises. To the delight of readers everywhere, American authors provide a wellspring of tales that uncover our past, define our present, and speak to our future. In keeping with our diverse American heritage, stories have been chosen from a broad cross-section of literary and cultural traditions. Alongside canonical authors such as Nathaniel Hawthorne and Ernest Hemingway, we read the works of Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, Louise Erdrich, Kate Chopin, and others, examining how these diverse voices diverge from, resist, and transform the traditional American short story canon. This course satisfies a WAC Writing to Learn requirement; an Integrations in the Humanities requirement; and the Diversity, Inclusion, and Social Justice requirement.

Where does the popular perception of America as the “New World” come from? How could slavery flourish in a land idealizing freedom? Why were immigrants so feared and reviled? Why did expansionism push out some and make millionaires of others? Such questions will be explored in a chronological framework through extensive readings from the beginnings of the American literary tradition to the turn of the twentieth century. Threaded throughout the literature are themes such as religious identity, political reform, race, slavery, war, gender, and industrialization. This course fulfills the Historical Perspectives requirement in the English major. Prerequisites: ENGL 121 or 190.

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 is focused on intersections and tensions between literature and the law. By analyzing literary and cinematic texts, students will explore the experiences of individuals living within imperfect systems of the law, especially the often-ambiguous relationship between innocence and guilt, right and wrong, justice and injustice. Reading and writing assignments will sharpen students’ understanding of rhetoric and audience and will raise questions related to racial, gender, and economic justice particular to the practice of law within the United States and beyond. Texts may include Thomas Jefferson’s Declaration of Independence, Henry David Thoreau’s Civil Disobedience, Susan Glaspell’s A Jury of Her Peers, Harriet Jacobs’s Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl, or Suzan-Lori Parks’ Sally & Tom. The goal is to help students understand the ethical dimensions of law and prepare them to engage compassionately in professional practice. This course satisfies the core Integrations in the Humanities and the Diversity, Inclusion, Social Justice core requirements and a WAC Writing to Learn requirement.

The course will discuss how to enter the publishing industry, what to expect as a writer, and the industry’s issues and inequalities. We will walk through the hurdles and steps a manuscript must pass to achieve publication, and we’ll workshop materials that will be useful in publishing (such as marketing pitches and query letters). We will also engage with the industry’s history and with the local Twin Cities literary environment. The aim of the course is to empower students with industry knowledge and current trends so that they can be successful as writers or future editors.

Ethnography has often been thought of as the domain of the great white adventurer/scholar, trekking to the most remote and dangerous corners of the globe to extract the culture of the native other and paste it into academic tomes to be consumed by a greedy public. The last century of ethnography, however, has shown that the other can write about themselves and can even train their eyes to see and write about the white father in turn. In this course we will examine ethnographies of the 20th and 21st centuries using a variety of genres (film, fiction, nonfiction, poetry, drama, etc.), and grapple with questions of power, representation, objectivity, and ethical responsibility when writing about culture – that of others or our own. Ultimately, we will consider: what counts as ethnography and what responsibilities are involved when we do it? Authors will include W.E.B. DuBois, Zora Neale Hurston, John Gwaltney, Louise Erdrich, and Kao Kalia Yang. This course satisfies an Integration in the Humanities requirement, a WAC Writing to Learn requirement, and a Genre Studies requirement for English Literature and Writing majors and English with Creative Writing majors. It also satisfies an elective requirement for English with Professional Writing majors. Prerequisite: ENGL 121 or 190.

FILM 230: In this course, we will consider the complex constructions of “race” in US film, paying special attention to the following questions: How has the category of “race” been historically constructed and represented? Whose interests have these constructions served? Why are these dominant representations often so far removed from the “real” way in which people live their lives? How are these representations connected to the ways in which we continue to think about race? How do underrepresented filmmakers resist dominant representations of race in the present, creating complex and liberating ways to rethink race? Special attention will be given to the language of filmmaking, examining how this language evolves differentially across mainstream Hollywood cinema and in films created by minority filmmakers.

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. 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 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.

Public Health policies are inescapable, critical, but often invisible components of our everyday lives. The accessibility, cost and quality of health care; our preparedness for disasters; the safety of our food, water, environment and medications; the right to make individual decisions about our personal health and well-being; and many other issues are vitally tied to health policies and laws. Health policies and laws may have a lasting effect on our quality of life as individuals and on our welfare as a nation. This course examines the relationship between public health research and policymaking. Complex health policy problems facing policymakers today will be discussed. Specifically, this course examines healthcare policy from a public health perspective. Over the course of the semester, we will discuss federal, state, and local health policies in order to improve our understanding of how and why policies were and are developed and how research, politics, and other social factors inform the health policymaking process. Many of the contemporary health policy problems facing federal, state, and local policymakers today will be explored. Prerequisites: PUBH 220 or approval of the instructor

Is beauty "in the eye of the beholder"? Are "beauty" and "prettiness" synonymous? Are "beauty" and "ugliness" opposites? Might beauty still be considered a transcendental aspect of being along with the true and the good? Is it possible that Beauty is a name for God, or a means by which God reveals God's self in the created order?

[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.

This course explores the topic of women and the Old Testament from several different vantage points. In the first place, it will try to reconstruct the status and roles of women during the biblical periods at various points in their ancient Near Eastern context. This reconstruction will involve an examination of the legal and narrative material of the Old Testament and cross-cultural studies on women and family life in non-industrial countries. Secondly, the course investigates the conceptions of gender in the Old Testament, including key texts such as the creation stories, the stories about the ancestors, the stories about family honor, the female characters of the historical books of the Bible, the books named after women (Ruth, Esther, Judith), the texts symbolizing women as evil (e.g., the foreign woman, the adulterous wife, the whore of Babylon). Finally, the course studies the interpretive work of biblical scholars and how they utilize various historical and literary-critical methodologies in order to bring issues of gender, race, and class to bear upon the biblical text.

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.

Full course title: "Anti-Judaism in the West: Histories, Responses, and Interruptions" This course explores the origins and development of anti-Judaism in the west, Jewish responses to it, and Christian attempts at interrupting this legacy, particularly in the wake of the Shoah (Holocaust). Topics include anti-Judaism in antiquity, the internecine conflicts in early Judaism that lead to the formation of Christianity, Christian supercessionism in early Church doctrine, anti-Jewry legislation during the Christianization of the Roman empire, the emergence of cultural antisemitism in medieval Christendom, the development of racial antisemitism in the modern period, and the spread of anti-Jewish antisemitic ideology in contemporary politics. In turn, the course will examine Jewish responses and coping strategies in the wake of these various traumas. The course concludes with Christian attempts to interrupt its internal legacy of anti-Judaism and the status of current Christian-Jewish dialogue.

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.

If to work is to share in the creative activity of God, then what specific challenge does this pose for an attorney given the grinding realities of the legal profession? If to be a professional is to live out a tripartite relationship between self, client, and a higher standard, then how does an attorney determine, much less respond to such a standard? Through a close reading of a variety of theological texts, treaties, case studies and rules of professional conduct, this course will address these questions and, in so doing, attempt to fashion a paradigm for the Christian practice of law. Within this paradigm, emphasis will be placed on the meaning of justice, law, rights and responsibilities. An ethic of care that fosters the development of a compassionate world and a common life will be emphasized.
