CLA2005

This course will focus on the themes of identity, community and civic engagement. We will focus on developing dimensions of personal and social responsibility to include contributing to a larger community and taking seriously the perspectives of others. This course will take on big questions such as: What does it mean to contribute to a larger community? What does a college education prepare you for? How can critical thinking skills be applied to real life case studies? How do you navigate your identity in the workplace, academic, and service-learning settings? What is responsible citizenships and engage in diverse and competing perspectives?

In this course, we will turn to real-world stories and voices to explore our potential for greater understanding, compassion, empathy, resilience, democratic imagination, and critical citizenship
