Description:

This course considers issues of human diversity broadly defined to include race, ethnicity, culture, nationality, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, ability, and class. Through an intercultural competency interdisciplinary lens, we will examine the following questions: How do individuals experience and understand the interaction of diversity and difference? How do diversity and differences shape us and our systems that affect individuals, families, communities, and society?
