In this course students will investigate what light is as well as what light does. Our very existence depends on the energy provided by visible and invisible light from the sun, and mankind's continued development of technology to take advantage of the properties of light can be traced back to as early as 1900 B.C. The class discussions will be related to the work being done in the laboratory. Through lecture and lab experiments, students explore some of the fundamental properties of light and how these properties are utilized to enrich our lives and define their environments. Experiments in the lab consists of exploring the themes of reflection, refraction, lenses & optical instruments, dispersion, light & color, interference, polarization, diffraction & interference, and other applications. Prerequisite: Math 180 or advisor approval. Course Objectives Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to: (1) Identify and explain various properties of light. (2) Use information from databases and scientific texts to research methods and procedures for experiments. (3) Analyze data by conducting various hands-on lab experiments on various properties of light, such as reflection, refraction, polarization, and interference. (4) Evaluate outcomes and explain results by constructing lab reports. (5) Hypothesize and confirm results from trial and error investigations.

A survey of the human body, including the skin, skeleton, and muscles, as well as the respiratory, circulatory, digestive, excretory, nervous, endocrine, and reproductive systems. Course Objectives Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to: (1) Study the skin, skeletal, muscular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, circulatory, nervous, endocrine, and reproductive systems in the human body. (2) Analyze how these systems integrate to achieve homeostasis in the human. (3) Integrate this information in relation to the human environment. (4) Recognize the role of human evolution in terms of global ecology.

This course examines the many ways infectious diseases have impacted history. It provides examples of several important infectious diseases that have impacted civilizations, religion, war, immigration and even science. We will aim to reinterpret historical facts in the light of infectious disease and understand how microbes have affected and altered history. The course will cover diseases including The Black Plague, Syphilis, Smallpox, Influenza, Ebola, Mumps and other lesser-known diseases. Course Objectives Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to: (1) Use the scientific method when reading various articles dealing with science and scientific discoveries. (2) Interpret data, determine patterns and offer explanations (i.e. employ the scientific method). (3) Recall historical facts and reinterpret events with an understanding of the impacts of microbes/infectious diseases. (4) List influential microbes/diseases that have had clear impacts on historical events. (5) Discuss the phenomena of genetic shift and drift with respect to Influenza evolution. (6) Explain and interpret art from various periods with respect to the influence of disease. (7) Describe the infection process, reservoirs and/or disease process of major influential infectious agents.

This course is designed to provide students with a foundation for understanding the relationship between the skeletal and muscular systems of the body and how they correlate in the creation of movement. Other course components include the analysis of movement, referencing the Cardinal Planes of Action and associated movements with each of these Planes of Action. This course will also focus on anatomical alignment for the purpose of increasing movement potential and encouraging effective training methodologies to reduce injury. Specific attention will be placed on joint actions, identifying the agonist muscles responsible for creating movement and the antagonist muscles responsible for joint stability. The course format is designed to provide students with a variety of experiential learning exercises, including: lectures, group discussions, presentations, lab/movement studies, quizzes, and exams. Course Objectives Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to: 1) ? Describe your own body, including your strengths, weaknesses and limitations 2)Identify various joint actions utilizing structural analysis, bio-mechanical analysis and neuromuscular analysis. 3)Examine the use of proper posture, anatomical alignment and healthy hip rotation. 4)? Create movement studies referencing the major muscle groups of the body. 5)Hypothesize how the agonists create movement as the antagonist stabilize or contradict the movement of the referenced joint. 6) Evaluate how the course's concepts relate to working injury free and training in a healthy, physical manner
