Language is a major factor in cultural, social, and political organization. While students often study languages, and while they may pay some attention to language issues in courses in the humanities and social sciences, it is seldom that they examine language in all of its major social manifestations. That is the goal of the course. It should assist students in understanding the role of language as a human institution and will deepen their language learning as well as their sensitivity to, and awareness of, language issues. The course will focus on how people define themselves through language, how languages compete with one another, and on the forms language takes. It will consider the role of language in education, including issues of literacy, immigration, and efforts to promote language unity in the United States.
