Students will visit archaeological sites including Teotihuacan, Monte Alban and Mitla near Oaxaca. Students also will visit villages known for the production of pottery, weaving and wood carvings. Students will be responsible for the completion of a course workbook and a summary of required readings. Students also will have the opportunity to do a research paper or studio art project depending on one's interest. No prerequisites. This course counts toward the multicultural requirement of the general education curriculum. The course may be petitioned to fulfill a major requirement in art or history.
