Description:

The Ramapo Lecture Series: Diversity Perspectives is a 4-credit 200 level Communication Arts course open to students from all fields. The lectures themselves (scheduled from 6:30-7:45 including a 15 minute q&a session) will also be open to the entire Ramapo community and open to the community beyond Ramapo. The discussion sections will be limited to those students enrolled for the 4 credit course. The series will investigate and explore a variety of topics relevant to the theme of diversity perspectives in the 21st century. The series is co-sponsored by the Diversity Action Committee and other groups (to be specified). Guest speakers each week will present on a specific aspect of Diversity and the viewpoints, disciplines, and approaches will vary from speaker to speaker. A guest Ramapo facilitator each week will introduce the speaker and lead the question/answer session. During the discussion session which will follow the speaker students will be divided into groups of 30 and one group will meet with one of the course instructors and the guest speaker for further discussion; the other group will meet with the other instructor and the guest facilitator for discussion. (We will alternate weeks on which section meets with the guest speaker.) Thediscussions will be guided both by the themes and issues raised by the evening's speaker and the readings and materials prepared outside of class for that night's session. The course satisfies the History/Theory/Criticism Category in Communication Arts and the General Education category: Topics in Social Sciences. 0.000 TO 4.000 Credit Hours 0.000 TO 4.000 Lecture hours Levels: Undergraduate Schedule Types: Lecture Contemporary Arts College Communications Department Course Attributes: GE TOPICS SOCIAL SCIENCE
