COMM 1919 - Communication & Migration (3 Cr.) Entrepreneurship, Freshman Seminar
Course description
Humans have long been on the move. The motives, circumstances, and practices of migration, however, have changed over time. This course will introduce students to various ways in which communication can facilitate or hinder migration. It will examine how stories by migrants and about migrants interlock to shape the historical and current frameworks that make immigration an enduring social and political issue.
This course is taught by Professor Zornitsa Keremidchieva. Border crossing has long defined Prof. Z.'s personal and professional life. This class is an extension of her research interest in the contested history, politics, and rhetoric of human migration. It is also an expression of her belief that the college experience can be ever more fruitful if treated as its own migrant journey that challenges us to clarify our aspirations, values, and commitments.
