Have you ever thought about the relationship people have to their place—home, neighborhood, town, or city? How about to the environment? Have you ever thought about how people have shaped the places of our everyday lives—suburban housing developments, shopping malls, and small towns? And, have you ever thought about what will happen in the future to the Earth’s natural resources—the air, water, and land—as we continue to build and expand? Explore these kinds of questions through readings, lectures, video presentations, and group discussions. Challenge your mind—and imagination—and open up new avenues of discovery. Note: This course fulfills the U.S. Society (GU) requirement for students under GenEd and American Culture (AC) for students under Core.
