AMCD 200, American Culture:Power/Identity: (This course was originally titled ACST 200: Introduction to American Culture and Difference; the name change has been submitted as an information item to the UCC). 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.

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.

In the United States, some groups express their identities, in part, by using multiple languages or by using English in distinctive ways. Some dominant groups use language to express in-group belonging and to express exclusiveness, whether intentionally or unintentionally. This course explores the intersections of language, race and ethnicity, gender and sexuality, ability and disability, and identity by focusing on various groups in the U.S. Among other things, we will examine how Americans use language to express their distinctive cultural identities within the U.S. and we will examine how dominant groups at times marginalize others using language. Through examples drawn from the experience of ethnic groups such as Hispanics and Latinx people, Asian Americans, and African Americans; and marginalized communities such LGBTQIA people, women, and people with disabilities, students will explore broader questions such as how language shapes our perceptions and feelings of belonging. We will discover how language ideology underlies institutional policies and practices that can promote intolerance and prejudice, and how language can instead be used as a tool to foster social inclusion and belonging.

Over 70% of Americans indicate their workplace is the top location for the most frequent interaction with people who do not share their religious worldview or way of life. Furthermore, global religious populations are projected to grow at a rate 23 times higher than religiously unaffiliated populations. Religion is alive and well, and religious diversity, including secular identities, is only expected to increase in pubic and professional settings. Designed for students in all professional and public contexts, and emphasizing the case study method and opportunities to reflexively develop leadership for religiously diverse societies, this course introduces everyday interfaith leadership as the ability to draw on experience, religious literacy, and awareness of self and others to efficiently assess (inter)religiously complex situations, empathetically account for the various and often competing needs of stakeholders, and skillfully discern and take action to produce outcomes that serve the common public goods for all parties involved.

Human understanding of the brain and nervous system has improved dramatically over the past three decades. With the rapid expansion of knowledge has come an understanding that behavioral and cognitive disorders associated with both childhood development and with aging have a biological basis, and many have their origins in the interaction between the nervous system and environmental factors. Recent research has revealed that a healthy brain and nervous system depends on sound biologic function. Therefore, a basic understanding of the biology of the brain and nervous system, and of how the nervous system interacts with environmental factors, is necessary. This course will cover fundamental biological processes in the brain and nervous system, the role of the nervous system in human and animal behavior, and how environmental influences impact these processes at the cellular and organismal levels.
