Global Ethics

This course will introduce students to ethical traditions from around the world and will give students the opportunity to engage ethical considerations around a variety of vocational and experiential topics.

Crime In History

Historically how do we define crime? From ancient civilizations to the present, humanity has suffered, defined and dealt with crimes---civil, religious and criminal. Taking a global approach to the historical development of crime and criminal law, we explore how the past continues to affect our present and why we still have crime after centuries of attempting to eradicate it --just as Hammurabi did 1792- 1750 BCE. This course and the resulting research project allow you to pursue in depth a historical topic on crime and present this analysis to your peers.

Asians In America

"Asians in America" highlights the experiences of Asians and Asian Americans in the United States and beyond. We have witnessed discrimination and hostility against East Asians in the U.S. with the start of the corona virus pandemic. We have seen hostilities against Muslim Americans in the wake of 9.11. How and why did these sentiments come about? What does it mean to be an Asian in America today? In "Asians in America," we travel back in history to examine a variety of Asian experiences in America.

Gender And Empire

The old stereotype of the lone, male European explorer conquering and discovering new lands is far from the complete story of the role of gender in Empire. Once seen as a very masculine endeavor, studies by recent historians and Victorian diaries, letters, and travel accounts reveal the complexities of the role of gender in the founding and continuation of Imperialism in the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries. We will be examining the ways gender defined, circumscribed, and perpetuated Empire, especially in the 19th c. under British Imperialism.

Black Women In U.s. History

As historian Deborah Gray White has noted, "The uniqueness of the African American female's situation is that she stands at the crossroads of two of the most well-developed ideologies in America, that regarding women and that regarding the Negro." In that regard, black women's history offers a lens into racism and sexism in America, but also resistance to such oppression.

Event Planning & Management For The Arts

Event planning and event management are not the same thing. Further, events in the arts, entertainment, and cultural sectors have unique components. Through the creation of event timelines, event plans, reports, evaluation documents, project management tools, budgets, staffing plans, and risk assessments, students in this course will learn the fundamentals of event operations, venue management, and client relations.

This course is designed to cover introductory health, fitness and nutrition considerations when playing video games.
