HONR 213: Purity and Porn
2.00 Credits
Alfred University
If porn is a central feature of American popular culture, then is a return to modesty necessary? This course is a seminar that includes thoughtful discussion, a weekly reading journal and a final position paper with an oral defense. We begin with basic cultural studies articles from Simon During's "Cultural Studies: A Critical Introduction" in order to analyze Linda Williams' "Porn Studies" and Wendy Shalit's "A Return to Modesty". Our purpose is to debate the repercussions according to Williams and Shalit of cultural expressions of sexuality in the U.S. during the last decade, especially for adolescents and young adults by applying concepts about how culture works.

HONR 217: Dreams, Dreams, Dreams
2.00 Credits
Alfred University
What are dreams all about? Are they really meaningful, interpretable stories that are relevant to our lives or simply irrelevant neuron-firings that amount to unintelligible gibberish? What is the value of examining one's dreams closely? What is the function of dreams for the human organism? Are all of the prominent 'dream theorists', like Freud and Jung, just blowing smoke (cigar or pipe smoke, perhaps)? We will explore these questions and plunge into the world of dreams in this seminar. Artistic, scientific, social-scientific, and even business perspectives will be considered.

HONR 218: Bob Dylan and America
2.00 Credits
Alfred University
With Bob Dylan as our guide, we will journey into that strange place called modern America. We will focus primarily on what Dylan himself has admitted was his greatest work: the songs on the albums from "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" (1963) to "John Wesley Harding" (1967) with a look at some songs from later in his career. Looking closely at these songs, as performed poetry of the highest order, we will ask how Dylan the artist responded to such calamitous times. This course will allow students to come to terms with what Dylan has to offer them today and, by extension, students may ask which poetic voices, perhaps including Dylan's, figure in their vision of the cultural landscape of early 21st century America.
