Description:

This course explores the concepts of "community," "service," and "honor" through rigorous study of (1) current cultural events and trends, (2) literature - political, religious, and aesthetic, and (3) each student's ethics and values. The course begins with an overview of historical definitions of "service" in our country and in other cultures, so that students are better able to understand their opinions and actions within a historical and global context. Most importantly, a major segment of this course involves direct service, providing students with ongoing hands-on experience for reflection and analysis along with their reading, writing, research and classroom discussion. 3 hours of lecture per week (General Education: SS).
