Course Descriptions Home
FOCUS Report
 
 
ANTH210: CP Colonialism and Tribal Peoples Home
This course examines the impact of colonialist invasions and conquests as well as neocolonial
hegemony on tribal people. Direct and indirect consequences of colonialism will be discussed. Topics
include changes in economies, political autonomy and independence, family and social systems, and
religious beliefs. Readings will be drawn from studies of tribal societies in Africa, Asia, the
Americas, and the Pacific. Prerequisite: One course in social studies.
 
ANTH223: CP Life Histories Home
This course examines the life history, a form of ethnographic literature. Life histories straddle
autobiography and biography, historiography and memoir, and constitute a chronicle of the
storyteller's life as it is communicated to their audience, the anthropologist. We will examine the
processes that lead to these informative, yet intimate, accounts of individual lives and so
understand the value life histories have to empower their narrators and to broaden our knowledge of
less examined populations, such as women, the sick, or the poor. We will champion life histories in
this course, but will consider critiques of this widely popular method nonetheless. Our reflection
on these texts will extend to the manner in which life histories exist as a testament to the
worthwhile, but complex, friendships that arise during fieldwork between the narrator and the
anthropologist. The course looks to life histories with an eye to content as well as construction,
and so students will have the opportunity to collect a life history over the course of the semester.
 
ANTH227: CP Gender in Africa Home
This course examines gender in sub-Saharan Africa in both a colonial and postcolonial context.
Inquiries into the subject have made important contributions to our understanding of gender as
culturally diverse and dynamic as well as influenced by age, class, race, and nation. African women
and their achievements have been frequently ignored in the historical record and in many cases
continue be overlooked in comparison with their male counterparts. Under European colonization, men
and women's roles were transformed and oftentimes remade in the patriarchal image of the imperial
power. Despite these tumultuous transitions, African women, both then and today, productively meet
their social and economic needs and exercise power in their multiple roles as mothers, wives,
entrepreneurs, activists, and politicians. We will explore these successes in our studies, yet our
exploration of gender in Africa necessitates looking at men's changing position within African
societies as well. As African women provide more consistent care for their families' daily needs
through trade, farming, and domestic service, men find their responsibilities as husbands and
fathers transformed and their opportunities limited by forced migration and unemployment. We will
thus explore in this course what it means be male and female in historic and contemporary African
societies from multiple vantage points.
 
ANTH317: Subjects and Objects: Engagements with Material Culture Home
Does a treasured family heirloom hold the same importance in the life of its owner as a newly
purchased item of clothing or technology? Do some objects contaminate those with whom they come into
contact, while others have medicinal powers or bestow good fortune? In what circumstances are
objects and owners' inseparable? This course examines material culture, or things, from two related
perspectives: the object and its owner. As Appadurai observes, "objects have social lives" that are
sometimes independent from their owners. Objects such as kula shells are treasured by their
temporary owners and desired by others because they have a lengthy and renowned history of
circulation between the Pacific's Trobriand Islands, whereas some Pacific Northwest Indians amass
objects only to give them away in a ritualized ceremony--a Potlach--in order to become "big men." In
certain societies the presence of key resources, such as designer clothing or cooking implements,
permits their possessors to have social lives that lead to the expansion of social networks and
community building or political advancement. In this course, we will examine a range of theories
that correspond to these related approaches to material culture. From classic texts on circulation
and exchange to theories on materiality, consumption and object fetishism, our investigation of
objects and owners looks at an array of case studies from across the globe to better understand the
 
life of objects and the lives objects engendered in order to illuminate connections between people and possessions. Prerequisite: One 200-level course in social studies or permission of instructor.
 
ARAB101: CP Accelerated Beginning Arabic II Home
This accelerated course introduces the rudiments of written and spoken Modern Standard Arabic. In
addition to regular practice in writing the alphabet, word formation, elementary calligraphy, and
basic grammar, the course offers exercises in phonology, morphology, and syntax. By the second
semester, students can read and understand a variety of Arabic texts about customs and institutions
of the Middle East. The course also explores selected topics on Arab culture and civilization, such
as the role of classical Arabic in Muslim art and architecture and the connections between the
Arabic language and Islam. Successful completion of this year-long course fulfills the general
language requirement or the cultural perspectives requirement.
 
ARTH102: Survey of Western Art: Renaissance to Postmodern Home
This course, the second half of the Western art survey, covers developments in European and American
art since c. 1400. Lectures and class discussions focus on the changing roles of art and the artist
in society; on art as the expression of individual and cultural values; and on the methodologies of
art theory, criticism, and interpretation. Students develop their critical and analytical skills
while becoming familiar with a broad selection of works in relation to their cultural context.
Course fee to cover museum trip.
 
ARTH103: The Nude in Greek Art Home
The nude is a defining motif in the art and thought of classical Greece. This course examines and
analyzes the principles and meanings of "ideal form" and their impact and power in the development
of Western ideas and art, focusing on the ideas of rationality, idealism, symmetry, and
universality. Does the "spirit" of the nude originate in the Apollonian or the Dionysian; in the
rational or the irrational? How do our contemporary understandings of the body, of sexuality, and of
what it means to be human illuminate, contribute to, or obscure our understanding of these
principles? This course satisfies one half of the arts requirement.
 
ARTH212: Theories of Photography Home
In this course we think about what theory is and what it contributes to our understanding of
photography. We read some of the most interesting and influential writing about photography
including the work of its classic theorists--Walter Benjamin, Roland Barthes, Susan Sontag--and
critical poststructuralists writing today, scholars such as Abigail Solomon-Godeau and Jonathan
Crary. We correlate theory to the analyses of specific photographs taken from the last 160 years of
photo history. The course is based on the premise that no photograph simply captures reality and
instead that all photos, like any other form of cultural representation, are subjective
constructions of experience. As such, photos are imbued with conventions and social and political
ideologies of the photographer and her/his times. In the second half of the semester, we read
critics who have been influenced by the classic theorists and evaluate their case studies of
individual photographs and broader issues in the history of photography. This course is one of a
three-semester series in the history and analysis of photography; the courses can be taken
independently. No prerequisites.
 
ARTH213: Analyzing Television Home
The focus of of this course is perhaps the most pervasive element in the American popular cultural
landscape: television. Since its inception, commercial network TV has also been considered one of
the primary means for inculcating social values and ideologies. The course provides critical,
historical, and multi-disciplinary perspectives on viewing network TV as ways to understand,
rethink, appreciate, and resist the discourses television offers. It explores how TV contributes to
the making of a "mainstream" that upholds the status quo, most evident in "the news" and
commercials. We consider portrayals of gender, race, and sexualities, and we explore the topic of
violence on network TV. We consider the value of "elite" tools (postmodern, feminist, and queer
 
critical theories) to analyze an accessible and "popular" medium. No prerequisites.
 
ARTS211: Interactive Arts Workshop Home
This year, the theme will be "Transcending the Timeline: Animation and Interactivity." Beginning
students will work with Flash as a primary authoring tool to bring together graphics and sound,
creating animations that will introduce essential elements of interactivity - branching, control
with mouse and/or keyboard, etc, forming the building blocks of the more complex structures found in
game development. Flash is the most widespread tool used to bring dynamic, multi-sensory elements
into otherwise static web sites. Advanced students will be able to work in 3D using Blender, the
premier "open source" modeling and animation program, and Unity, which is used to create immersive
interactive environments. Class members, working as individuals and/or in small teams, will
explore and create works that combine traditional arts disciplines and media (including performing
and studio arts) with human interaction via the computer interface. In addition to becoming
familiar with the technical aspects of interactive multimedia, the class will explore the
aesthetic and conceptual.

ASIA326: Modern China from the Margins: Class, Gender, Ethnicity, and the Nation State Home
This course examines the making of Chinese modernity through the construction and contestation of
spaces delineating class, gender, ethnicity, and nationhood. Our project is to explore relationships
between space and time in narratives on identity dating roughly from the Opium War of the mid-19th
century to the era of globalization in the early 21st. Materials for study include scholarly works,
political tracts, fiction, essays, documentaries, administrative maps, landscapes, technologies, and
more. Our dialogue revolves around the following questions: First, is the concept of the modern
nation-state applicable to the People's Republic of China and is the Chinese nation-state strictly a
modern phenomenon? Second, how have cultural others--the non-Han peoples--contributed to the idea of
"Zhongguo," the "Central Kingdom(s)," as opposed to "waiguo," the outside ethno-political entities,
through time? What justifications and social controls have been used to facilitate the incorporation
of non-Han territories into the Chinese realm and how is this process continuing in the 21st
century? Third, how has the concept of socioeconomic class been conceived by modern Chinese
political theorists, and upon which varieties of pre-modern social networks and cultural relations
were these ideologies cast? How have class-relations developed over the course of the 20th century
and into the present day? Fourth, how have gender relations and sexuality served as catalysts for
political revolution and social change since the early 20th century? How have they informed Chinese
Communist Party policy since 1949 and how are they changing in the post-reform period of economic
liberalization and the hollowing out of the state? Fifth, how has space been defined in regard to
the nation, the individual, the body, labor, sexuality, gender, ethnicity, the urban, the rural, and
national boundaries in a "globalizing world?" Sixth, how have Chinese intellectuals engaged with
these issues and the question of China's position in the global community in the post-Mao period,
particularly within the engagement between "patriotic worrying," post-modern theory, and the
prospect of an end to the country's geopolitical marginalization? Prerequisites: One 200-level
 
course in Asian studies and one 200-level course in social studies, or permission of the instructor.
 
BAS383: Environmental Ethics Home
Environmental Ethics is the study of the nature and extent of our moral obligations with respect to
the environment as well as of the theoretical justification for such obligations. In this course we
shall be especially interested in examining various theories about whether and how various regions
of the environment can have an intrinsic moral value, and how such value should affect our attitudes
and actions toward our natural environment. We shall also be concerned with the question of whether
and to what extent the ethical questions can be and should be informed by environmental science, as
well as with gaining a clear understanding on the limits of science with respect to problems and
questions of ethics and morality. Among the specific topics to be covered are animal rights, and
the conflicts that arise between animal rights theories and environmental ethics; various
extensionist approaches to the assignment of intrinsic moral value to the environment; deep ecology
and ecofeminism as radical alternatives to the extentionist approach to environmental ethics;
ethical issues in the restoration and preservation of wilderness areas; whether and how
environmental ethics can be reconciled with demands for social justice; and whether and to what
extent religion contributes to or helps to resolve the current environmental crisis. Special
attention will be given to the ethical issues stemming from global warming and climate change,
especially in light of the United Nations Copenhagen Agreement, currently being negotiated.
 
BAS384: Bridges: Art as Collective Conscious Home
This team-taught seminar examines the origins and processes of artists in a variety of creative
modes who are working in the twenty-first century. Held in conjunction with the Arts Division's
Bridges Visiting Artists Program, we will focus on the work of four internationally known
artists/artist groups who will engage in short residencies on campus: composer and musician Shahzad
Ismaily; public and installation artist Kristin Jones; painter, sculptor, installation artist Portia
Munson; and the Bread and Puppet Theatre. Students will be expected to attend the formal
presentations, performances and receptions for these four artists/artist groups that will usually
occur on Saturdays. Readings, presentations and discussions will introduce students to each
artist's work. Students will write and present on the work of select artist/artist groups that
focuses on an area of interest as determined by the student in conference with the faculty. A final
project or paper will synthesize the semester's work. Faculty from other divisions of the college
will be invited to participate in the seminar, as we explore topics relating to the arts as they
interact with public media and contemporary society.
 
BIO100: Introduction to the Life Sciences Home

BIO211: Human Osteology Home
Meets the Science requirement. With rare exceptions, the only direct evidence we have pertaining to
the anatomy, health and evolution of past human populations must be derived from preserved skeletal
remains. Increasingly there is a need to identify and determine age, sex, ancestry and other
information from contemporary human remains. Detailed knowledge of the human skeleton is therefore
central to a broad range of functional, population and taxonomic studies in archaeology,
paleontology, forensic medicine, dental and medical research. Students will learn about the external
and internal structure and physiological properties of bone, how to interpret growth and development
of bone, how bone structure evolves given different environments, how various diseases and trauma
modify bone, and last but not least, students will learn how to recognize and identify every bone in
the human body, and many key muscles, and other structures, that are associated with the bones.
Classes will consist of a combination of lecture days and laboratory days.
 
BIO306: Physiology I Home
Physiology is the study of biological function, the manifestation of dynamic interactions of many
specialized cell types as they perform as tissues, organs, and systems. This course presents a
mechanistic examination of mammalian physiology, integrating classical physiology with a molecular
and cellular approach. Emphasis will be placed on essential homeostasis, regulatory pathways, tissue
organization, and the organ systems of the human body. Comparative vertebrate models will be
employed in laboratory activities. Laboratory required; laboratory fee. Prerequisites: Biology 201,
Chemistry 101, or permission of the instructor.
 
BIO312: Biochemistry Home
This course is designed to demonstrate how the chemistry of living systems is a natural extension of
the basic principles of inorganic and organic chemistry. We will explore the structures and
functions of biologically active molecules using an inquiry based model of instruction. Recent
advances in biochemical research will be incorporated with background from the text and papers of
fundamental value to the field. Topics include: biosynthesis of proteins, nucleic acids, lipids,
steroids, carbohydrates; protein structure and enzyme catalysis; bioenergetics and metabolic
pathways; and biochemical evolution. This course will be laboratory intensive, both in the classical
"wet" lab and in utilizing the modern tools of molecular modeling to get a sense of the diversity of
problems biochemists broach. A service-learning project is also included. Prerequisites: Chemistry
303 and Biology 201, or permission of the instructor.

Chinese. It provides a systematic and efficient study of Chinese grammar, vocabulary, oral/aural
skills, and reading and writing Chinese characters. The goal of the course is to enable the students
to function successfully in most of the basic communicative situations with a native Chinese.
Students are also exposed at the same time to Chinese cultural traditions through such activities as
viewing Chinese movies, listening to Chinese music, and tasting Chinese cuisine. The class meets
five times per week.
 
CHIN101L: Accelerated Beginning Chinese II Lab Home
Students enrolled in CHIN101 must also register for a lab section.
 
CHIN203: Chinese Theater Performance Home
Students read, rehearse, and perform a work from the modern Chinese dramatic repertoire as a means
of furthering developing skills in reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Each student will
perform a role or combination of roles in the final production; written and oral assignments during
the rehearsal process and after the final performance will foster learning of both language skills
and performance skills. Students at the 203 level generally read only the portions of the play in
which their roles appear, and they will read them in the classroom under the instructor¿s guidance.
Students at the 303 level must be able to read an appropriate portion of the play on their own;
class time for them will be spent on discussion and rehearsal, but not on direct reading. Chinese
303 is suitable for both native and non-native speakers of Chinese. Prerequisite for Chinese 203:
Chinese 100 or equivalent language level, plus instructor's permission. Prerequisite for Chinese
303: Chinese 205 or equivalent language level, plus instructor's permission.

combinations, discrete probability, solving recurrences, order relations, graphs, trees, and models
of computation. Prerequisite: Mathematics 210.
 
DANC107: Moving Issues Home
Moving Issues explores issue-based dance and choreography. The course investigates how personal and
cultural issues can be expressed through dance and, in turn, how dance can impact the experience of
those issues. Students learn to consider such issues and challenges from an artist's standpoint,
through the creation of both improvisational dance and set choreography. The course emphasizes
personal expression, the creative process, and the power of the arts to transform our experience of
the questions, challenges and concerns faced in our lives. The class includes warm-up exercises,
movement and choreography labs, performance opportunities, journaling, discussion, and the use of
other arts modalities. Readings and videos deepen the understanding and experience of class
material. Response journals, movement assignments and a final project/paper are required.

DANC116: Introduction to Ballet II Home
In this class, dancers acquire a traditional approach to ballet techniques along with an innovative
foundation which aims for anatomically friendly movement. It offers a flexible blend of classical
ballet, kinesiology, and Tai chi principles in order to encourage flow, efficiency, and a whole body
approach. Clear and efficient technique is developed through barre and center work, and an ongoing
emphasis on musicality, use of breath, awareness of the floor and space, and moving in relation to
others. Individual expression and movement quality are encouraged and developed. Prerequisite: DANC
114 or permission of the instructor.
 
DANC119: Chinese Sword Home
Chinese Sword Form, also known as Tai-Chi Sword, is a meditative movement art based on the same
principles as Taijiquan and Qigong. A symbolic wooden sword is used in slow exercises which explore
the concepts of advancing and yielding. There are 64 movements in the form, and over the course of
the semester we will explore a section of it. The class will include sitting and walking
meditation, then the meditation of the sword form itself. There are some readings which will be
discussed, but the focus of the course is on movement. The primary goal is a balance of relaxation
and resilience in motion.
 
DANC207: Moving Issues Home
Moving Issues explores issue-based dance and choreography. The course investigates how personal and
cultural issues can be expressed through dance and, in turn, how dance can impact the experience of
those issues. Students learn to consider such issues and challenges from an artist's standpoint,
through the creation of both improvisational dance and set choreography. The course emphasizes
personal expression, the creative process, and the power of the arts to transform our experience of
the questions, challenges and concerns faced in our lives. The class includes warm-up exercises,
movement and choreography labs, performance opportunities, journaling, discussion, and the use of
other arts modalities. Readings and videos deepen the understanding and experience of class
material. Response journals, movement assignments and a final project/paper are required.

DANC224: Modern Dance and American Modernism Home
While today the term 'modern' is used to define many integrated styles of theatrical dance, modern
dance at its inception sought complete qualitative distinction, specifically from the romantic
ideals of the 19th century. Boundaries among the various burgeoning modern camps were just as
absolute and rarely crossed. As a cultural and intellectual movement in the early 20th century,
modernism did not just redefine western artistic creation and performance, but it also played a
significant role in reshaping everyday experience. This course will consist of an intermediate
modern technique/repertory class (choreography developed on students by Marjorie Folkman) followed
by academic study and discussion on the development of American modern dance alongside the emergence
of modern visual/social culture. Outside class work will include weekly reading assignments, short
essays and a final paper/project. Beginners in dance are welcome with permission of the
instructor.

ECON100: Microeconomics Home
An introduction to economics as a social science for students with essentially no background in
economics, this course presents basic concepts from both traditional and nontraditional perspectives
and critically evaluates their relevance to our understanding of the economic aspects of society.
The course starts with the evolution of societies in human history and the development of modern
economic thought. It then covers the basics of microeconomics, international economics, economic
growth, and the problem of energy and the environment.
 
ECON101: Macroeconomics Home
This course is a study of economic activity in relation to the level and growth potential of
national income. The emphasis is on a conceptual understanding of topics such as income
determination, inflation, unemployment, economic development, and the monetary system.
 
ECON209: Intermediate Political Economy Home
This course offers an introduction to theories of political economy, including radical economics,
which offer alternatives to the neoclassical view of the modern capitalist economy. Political
economy views the economy as a set of social relationships and processes which construct us, our
 
economy, and our society, and radical economics extends this to focus on the ways in which these processes contribute to producing exploitation and inequality. Rooted in the theories of Karl Marx and Thorstein Veblen, these approaches describe a diverse and often contested terrain of theories and interpretations of the modern social landscape. In the century or so since Marx's death, radical theories and ideas have emanated across the globe, crossing not only geographical, but intellectual, cultural, and political boundaries, as well. Today, political economy would more aptly describe this diversity of perspectives, including the critique of class dynamics, as well as the anti-racist, anti-colonial, and feminist movements. This course will examine these evolving ideas during the course of the semester. Prerequisites are Macroeconomics, Microeconomics or permission of instructor (prior coursework in politics is recommended).
 
ECON224: Crisis! Economics of the Financial Crisis and Recession of 2007-08 Home
Starting in 2007, the world economy entered a severe crisis and deep recession. In this course, we
will study the events of the crisis itself, its macroeconomic and financial root causes, and its
effects in terms of policy, economic thought, and individual and national welfare. At the
intermediate level, the course readings and discussions will remain relevant to students with
limited background in economics. Students taking the course at the advanced level will also be
expected to master formal mathematical models describing the circumstances leading to the crisis and
approaches to the recovery. Prerequisites for the intermediate level course are completion of one
200-level social science class or permission of the instructor; prerequisites for the 300-level
version of the class are Introduction to Macroeconomics or permission of the instructor.

ENVS201: Principles of Environmental Management Home
Here we consider alternate energy technologies, air and water pollution, risk assessment,
environmental law and impact assessment, and the ways in which this society attempts to manage our
environmental issues. Frequent field trips during laboratory time are used to visit hydroelectric
facilities, waste burning cogeneration plans, sewage treatment plants, and water treatment
facilities. Prerequisite: Environmental Studies 100.
 
FREN101: Accelerated Beginning French II Home
This accelerated course is designed for students with little or no previous experience of French. It
enables them to fulfill the College's language requirement in one year and prepares them for entry
into upper-level courses. The class meets five hours per week.
 
FREN205: Intermediate French II Home
Designed for students whose background in French is not sufficient for a higher level, this course
provides a systematic review of French grammar, regular practice in listening and speaking, and
readings in French prose. By the end of the second semester students understand simple French prose
and speech and can express themselves in simple fashion, orally and in writing. Satisfactory
completion of both semesters of this course fulfills the language requirement.
 
FS101: First-Year Seminar II: The Examined Life Home
All first-year students are required to take the two-semester First-Year Seminar. It introduces
 
students to the close reading of texts and the writing of substantive analytical essays that are the basis of much college work. Students examine differing treatments of common situations, emotions, conflicts, and questions that have engaged great writers over the centuries. The seminar focuses on the themes of self-discovery, the relationship of the individual and society, and the nature of values and responsibility. It draws on and develops the methods introduced in the Writing and Thinking Workshop, fostering critical thinking and the effective articulation of ideas. In the fall semester, readings for the course include The Epic of Gilgamesh, Sophocles' The Oedipus Cycle, Plato's The Last Days of Socrates, Dante's Inferno, and a wide array of articles, essays, poems, and stories chosen to enhance discussion of the major texts and the issues they raise, and to provide a variety of topics for students to explore in writing. In the spring semester, students further develop their writing and thinking skills through reading, discussion, and expository writing using a variety of primary and supplementary texts, including Shakespeare's Hamlet, Mozart and Da Ponte's Don Giovanni, Austen's Pride and Prejudice, and Douglass' Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass. The course continues to focus on values, self-discovery, cultural imperatives, freedom, and understanding. Most of the primary texts studied are derived from the Western canon and consequently an additional goal of the course is to train and encourage students to examine the Western tradition critically and to raise questions concerning the sexism, racism, chauvinism, and parochialism inherent in any given cultural tradition. Class sessions are supplemented by lectures and other activities that provide background and context for the texts, presented by faculty from all the divisions and by guest speakers.
 
GEOG114: CP Reading the Cultural Landscape: An Introduction to Cultural Geography Home
Cultural geography is the interdisciplinary study of spatial practices through which individuals and
socio-cultural groups create meaningful environments and ascribe order to landscapes, nature, and
the terrestrial realm as a whole. Drawing from the humanities, social sciences, and natural
sciences, the discipline examines the ways in which humans experience, define, delimit, and shape
spaces and places through time. This course is a "hands on" introduction to major themes of cultural
geography, with regular project work and several field trips (on campus and in the Berkshire
region), which focus on a variety or wild, agricultural, smalll town, and urban landscapes. The
course focuses on participant observation, the use of archives and literary sources, multimedia, map
interpretation and intepretive cartography. A premium is placed on creative means of conveying the
human experience of space and place. Themes covered in the course include space, place, and power;
property and public/private space; psychoanalytics of the body, space, and territory; national
identity and cultural landscapes; the spatialization of race, ethnicity, gender, and sexuality;
critical perspectives on urban and regional development and planning; and geographies of
globalization and empire.

studies course.
 
GEOG326: Modern China from the Margins: Class, Gender, Ethnicity, and the Nation State Home
 
This course examines the making of Chinese modernity through the construction and contestation of
spaces delineating class, gender, ethnicity, and nationhood. Our project is to explore relationships
between space and time in narratives on identity dating roughly from the Opium War of the mid-19th
century to the era of globalization in the early 21st. Materials for study include scholarly works,
political tracts, fiction, essays, documentaries, administrative maps, landscapes, technologies, and
more. Our dialogue revolves around the following questions: First, is the concept of the modern
nation-state applicable to the People's Republic of China and is the Chinese nation-state strictly a
modern phenomenon? Second, how have cultural others--the non-Han peoples--contributed to the idea of
"Zhongguo," the "Central Kingdom(s)," as opposed to "waiguo," the outside ethno-political entities,
through time? What justifications and social controls have been used to facilitate the incorporation
of non-Han territories into the Chinese realm and how is this process continuing in the 21st
century? Third, how has the concept of socioeconomic class been conceived by modern Chinese
political theorists, and upon which varieties of pre-modern social networks and cultural relations
were these ideologies cast? How have class-relations developed over the course of the 20th century
and into the present day? Fourth, how have gender relations and sexuality served as catalysts for
political revolution and social change since the early 20th century? How have they informed Chinese
Communist Party policy since 1949 and how are they changing in the post-reform period of economic
liberalization and the hollowing out of the state? Fifth, how has space been defined in regard to
the nation, the individual, the body, labor, sexuality, gender, ethnicity, the urban, the rural, and
national boundaries in a "globalizing world?" Sixth, how have Chinese intellectuals engaged with
these issues and the question of China's position in the global community in the post-Mao period,
particularly within the engagement between "patriotic worrying," post-modern theory, and the
prospect of an end to the country's geopolitical marginalization? Prerequisites: One 200-level
course in Asian studies and one 200-level course in social studies, or permission of the instructor.
 
GERM101: Accelerated Beginning German II Home
This accelerated course is designed for students with little or no background in German. It enables
them to fulfill the language requirement in one year and introduces students to German grammar and
basic vocabulary. Conversational German is stressed. Students also acquire reading skills through
exposure to short stories by such authors as Bichsel, Hesse, and Borchert. The class meets five
times per week. Enrollment is by permission of the instructor.
 
GERM205: Intermediate German II Home
Designed for students who have studied German but whose grammar background is not sufficient for a
more advanced level, this course presents a systematic review of German grammar and introduces
students to several short stories by contemporary German, Austrian, and Swiss authors. By the end of
the second semester students are able to understand simple German prose and speech and to express
themselves in a simple fashion, orally and in writing. This course fulfills the general language
requirement in one year. Prerequisite: Permission of the instructor.
 
HIST203: CP Russia from Medieval Times to the Eve of Revolution Home
Russia was born at the margins of the Western world, and has been a site of conflict between Europe
and Asia for more than 1,000 years. Christianized by Byzantium, conquered by the Mongols, and
forcibly Westernized by Peter the Great, it evolved a unique civilization viewed both as an exotic,
primitive cousin of the West, and as its most threatening enemy. Nevertheless, Russia's rise to
great power status, the stunning flowering of its secular culture, and the resistance of its peoples
to a crushing autocratic state compel respect and admiration. This course explores Russia's complex
historical development and rich cultural heritage from their 9th-century beginnings to the early
20th century, when an anachronistic imperial state stood on the eve of the revolutions that would
destroy it. Course materials raise questions about our understandings of individual, sexual, and
social liberation, the limits of political power, and the prospects for cross-cultural
understanding. As is evidenced in the agonized interrogation of Russia's "historical mission" by her
Westernized elite, Russia's placement at the point where the boundary between "East" and "West" has
been most permeable provides ample ground for reflection on the nature of both. Among the texts
 
analyzed are writings by cultural and political figures such as Bakunin, Dostoevsky, and Gogol; works of popular culture; and classic Soviet cinematic representations of the Russian past, such as Eisenstein's Ivan the Terrible and Andre Tarkovsky's Andrei Rublev. No prerequisites.
 
INTC315: The Mythic Imagination Home
If there is "not one single shred of evidence" to support the widely accepted theory that myths were
primitive explanations of natural phenomena, then the question remains, whence and wherefore myth?
In this course we will closely examine five complex models for understanding mythology. Carl Jung
broke from Freud with an alternate and equally influential theory involving "archetypes" in a
"collective unconscious," wherein, he said, could be found all the patterns of myth across all
cultures. In The Sacred and the Profane Mircea Eliade describes the people of myth-oriented
societies as homo religiosus, and compares and contrasts this mode of being in the world with a
contemporary secular common sense of reality. Giorgio de Santillana and Hertha von Dechend's fugal
essay, "Hamlet's Mill," follows the single, very ancient myth of Hamlet all over the world, and
finds encoded in this myth the origins of human science. Do Kamo: Person and Myth in the Melanesian
World by anthropologist Maurice Leenhardt is a case study of a myth-oriented people that confronts
us with counterintuitive constructions of the human being, nature, and society. And in Saving the
Appearances (quoted above), English philosopher Owen Barfield proposes some far-reaching conclusions
based on premises from quantum physics, anthropology, and an historical examination of language. By
applying these authors' observations and meditations to a cross-section of traditional tales from a
variety of cultures, we will cultivate our faculty of imagining myth and thus engage mythology on
its own terms as a storehouse of meaning. Prerequisite: Sophomore standing, or permission of the
instructor. Some previous study of mythology is recommended.
 
LATN101: Accelerated Beginning Latin II Home
Latin is the language not only of Vergil, Cicero, Horace, Catullus and Tacitus, but also of poets,
historians, scientists, philosophers and theologians through the time of St. Augustine down to the
Middle Ages and on into the Renaissance and beyond. It is the language in which western culture was
transmitted to Western Europe, beside being the source of a large proportion of English vocabulary.
Students with no (or relatively little) previous experience of Latin will acquire a working
knowledge of the language. Latin will be learned as a language spoken and heard in the classroom,
not as abstract rules and paradigms. We will speak, chant, sing and perform skits in Latin, in
addition to reading. Explanations will be given in English, and we will practice translating in
both directions. By the end of the spring continuation of this course, students will be able to
hold their own in conversation and also, with the aid of a dictionary, to read most Latin authors.
 
LATN205: CP Intermediate Latin II: Roman Civilization and Comedy Home
Designed for students who have had, either in high school or college, the equivalent of one
semester's experience in reading extended Latin texts. The reading for this course is determined in
conjunction with the participating students. As a general rule, most of the reading is prose, as
Latin 204 focuses on poetry. By the end of this semester, students should be quite comfortable with
dealing on their own with virtually any Latin text. Prerequisite: Latin 204 or its equivalent (see
instructor for placement).
 
LING101: English Grammar Home
This course presents and reviews the rules and formative processes of English grammar. Students will
work with grammatical exercises and then apply their knowledge learning how to organize sentences
and paragraphs and to structure and develop their ideas in papers. The course is designed to help
students improve their writing skills by learning formal rules of grammar. It is also designed for
students who are good writers but who want to finally learn what English grammar is all about.
Grades will be based on daily grammar exercises, class participation, and a final exam. This course
adds to offerings in English, in writing, in linguistics, and in the study of language. However,
this course does not count towards fulfillment of the language requirement. No prerequisites.
 
LING305: Topics in Syntax & Morphology Home
 
This course presents readings in theories and methods of morphological and syntactic analysis.
Readings and analytic problems acquaint students with principles of analyzing word formation
patterns (morphology) and of phrasal and sentence construction (syntax). Structural and generative
theories will be explored. Data will be drawn from indigenous, non-European, and European languages.
Prerequisite: Linguistics 100 or its equivalent.
 
LIT202: Art of Fiction: Short Story Home
Frank O'Connor once wrote that an inferior writer could still be a great novelist, but that no
inferior writer could ever be a great storyteller. After touching on the roots of storytelling in
fable, parable, and tale, we will focus on the work of major storytellers (a.k.a. short story
writers) of the 19th and 20th centuries, exploring their contributions to the ongoing evolution of
this literary genre. Writers studied include Poe, Hawthorne, Maupassant, Chekhov, Joyce, Mansfield,
Kafka, Hemingway, O'Connor (Flannery), Borges, and Munro--as well as new voices from Jhumpa Lahiri
to Junot Diaz. Although this is a literature course and not a course in writing fiction, students
planning to major in creative writing will benefit from the discussions of literary craft and
exposure to the broad range of writers and stories.
 
LIT244: Whitman & Dickinson Home
Walt Whitman's "barbaric yawp" and Emily Dickinson's oblique "letter to the world" constitute the
two major voices of nineteenth century American poetry. Both suffered from a degree of neglect and
misunderstanding in their lifetimes, but are now recognized as two of the most innovative and
original poets ever to have written in the English language. Many regard them as the founders of
modern American poetics. As writers they provide a fascinating study in contrasting styles of
expression, one favoring elliptical brevity and variations on traditional metrical and musical
forms, the other indulging in expansive free verse renderings of his experience of American life.
Their approaches to the world were just as different: one tended to limit herself and her writing to
a narrow circle of family and friends, while the other engaged with public life and ambitiously
sought critical recognition; one rarely published during her lifetime, while the other published the
same book of poems multiple times, constantly revising and expanding it. This course studies their
poetry in the context of their lives and the historical and intellectual milieu of the nineteenth
century. No prerequisites.
 
LIT251: From Metatron to Mephistopheles: The Personification of Good and Evil in the Abrahamic Tradition Home
This course considers the history and development of Angels and of Satan in three major religions:
Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Texts will include selections from the Tanak, the New Testament,
the Apocrypha, the Koran, Interpreted, and the Kabbalah. We will explore themes such as the rhetoric
of good and evil, the promise of salvation and damnation, the notion of faithfulness and sin, and
the concepts of eschatology and apocalypticism. Further, we will read a variety of literary texts
imbued with these themes in order to understand the ways in which good and evil have been
personified in literature.
 
LIT258: The 19th-Century Novel: Inventing Reality Home
This course examines major works of realism and naturalism by 19th-century European and Russian
novelists in their social and political contexts. Novels are selected from the works of writers such
as Austen, Balzac, Conrad, Dickens, Dostoevsky, Eliot, Flaubert, Gogol, Stendhal, Tolstoy, Turgenev,
Twain, and Zola. No prerequisites.
 
LIT286: Tears, Fears, and Laughter: Greek Tragedy amd Comedy Home
The drama of the Greeks has always been considered one of the highpoints of Western literature. We
will investigate this drama primarily by reading--in English translation--and discussing many of the
tragedies of Aeschylus, Sophocles (but not the Oedipus plays read in Seminar), and Euripides, as
well as the comedies of Aristophanes and the one which remains of the later poet Menander. We will
consider theories concerning the origins of drama, in particular tragedy, and also the relationships
among tragedy, comedy, and the mysterious satyr play. The major dramatists wrote in the 5th century
 
in Athens, and an understanding of the conditions of production will provide insights into the plays. Such topics include: How and by whom were the plays chosen? Where and when were they performed, and who were the actors? What theatrical conventions existed and how did they help to determine what the playwright could do? What was the function of the chorus? Could Aristophanes really slander politicians and private citizens at will? How would an Athenian audience have reacted to the anti-war sentiments expressed during wartime constantly by Aristophanes and occasionally by Euripides (e.g., The Trojan Women)? I trust there will be sufficient thespian interest to allow us to act out, or even stage, individual scenes, and to test how one might embody different interpretations given the conventions and constraints. No prerequisites.
 
LIT288: Fiction Workshop Home
For students who have some experience in writing short fiction and want to give and receive helpful
criticism in a workshop atmosphere, this course combines structure and freedom: structure in the
form of assigned exercises drawing attention to the elements and techniques of fiction and freedom
in the form of longer, independently conceived stories. Some time is spent each week discussing
short fiction by contemporary writers as well as that of students in the workshop, with the goal of
sharpening our abilities as writers, editors, and critics. Admission to the course is selective;
candidates must submit samples of their writing to the instructor before registration. Prerequisite:
Literature 150 or permission of the instructor.
 
LIT289: Poetry Workshop Home
The workshop is intended for students willing to make their own writing a means of learning about
poetry, poetic devices, and techniques, and the discipline of making and revising works of art.
Class time is divided between a consideration of the students' work and the work of modern British
and American poets, but the central concern of the course is the students' own writing, along with
the articulation, both private and shared, of response to it. Prerequisite: Literature 150 or 151.
 
LIT319: Theater of the Absurd Home
This seminar offers an intensive examination of major writers whose work shaped and embodied one of
the most important movements in 20th-century drama. The focus will be on close reading of a number
of plays by four or five authors in their literary, cultural, and philosophical contexts. Writers
and texts will vary each time the course is taught and may include Pirandello, Cocteau, Beckett,
Camus, Sartre, Genet, Ionesco, Pinter, Albee, Havel, Mrozek, and Stoppard. Prerequisite: One
200-level literature course or permission of the instructor.
 
LIT330: The Inklings Home
C. S. Lewis, Charles Williams, J. R. R. Tolkien, and Owen Barfield are the best known members of the
loosely knit group of writers and thinkers known as the Inklings, who met in the 1930s and 1940s to
discuss literature and philosophy. Though their writing is not part of the mainstream of modern
British fiction, it is increasingly being recognized for its significant contributions to
contemporary Christian thought and literary expression. This course focuses on their lives, their
relationships with one another, their religious beliefs, and such major works as Lewis's deep space
trilogy and mythopoeic fantasies, Williams's novels of theology and the supernatural, Tolkien's
Rings Trilogy, and Barfield's studies of language and consciousness. Prerequisite: One 200-level
literature course or permission of the instructor.

MUS207: Theory II: Tonal Harmony Home
Theory I introduces the tonal system through the composition and analysis of simple melodies. The
course gradually builds the picture of harmonized melody by developing bass-lines and inner voices
utilizing triads in all inversions. It also builds basic musical skills, emphasizing interval
identification and minimal keyboard familiarity. Theory II introduces the use of dissonance in the
form of suspension and seventh chords, and chromaticism in the form of secondary harmonies and
modulatory progressions. Chromatic harmonies (Neapolitan and augmented sixth chords) and enharmonic
relations complete the tonal picture. Short whole pieces from the Baroque period are used as first
examples of whole-piece analysis.

MUS214: Beethoven & Schubert Home
A continuation of Music 215m that can also be taken separately, this module explores the outcome of
18th-century developments in the early 19th century through the works of two contrasting figures,
Beethoven (1770-1827), a composer of concert music who worked in the public eye, and Schubert
(1797-1828), whose most successful works were meant for homes and salons, and whose moment of fame
arrived several generations after his death. Both composers' innovations were built on the solid
foundations of the classical forms and classical tonality, but each created a highly personal style.
Individual works are examined in depth but with attention to the larger historical context. Student
work includes response journals and one paper/project on a self-selected topic. Either an
acquaintance with musical notation or some historical or literary background are suggested but not
required.
 
MUS215: Haydn & Mozart Home
Emphasizing listening and the development of individual responses, this course explores the work of
two pivotal figures in late 18th-century music, one of whom changed the direction of European music
decisively toward instrumental forms (sonata, quartet, symphony) while the other mastered these
forms with astonishing speed and also brought the older form of opera to its historical pinnacle.
Individual works are examined in depth but with attention to the larger historical context. Student
work includes response journals and one paper/project on a self-selected topic. Either an
acquaintance with musical notation or some historical or literary background are suggested but not
required.

Eight films with their soundtracks are the subject of intensive analysis in order to answer the
question: how does music mediate the structure and message of the film? The course considers a
variety of styles of cinema and music, arranged historically, from the classic Hollywood film with
its neo-Wagnerian score, to European pre- and post-war alternative styles, to post-classic Hollywood
and independent films that utilize a variety of musical strategies. Directors include S. Eisenstein,
A. Hitchcock, S. Leone, B. Bertolucci, and E. Morris; composers include W. E. Korngold, S.
Prokofiev, B. Herrmann, E. Morricone, and P. Glass. The class will meet for three hours every third

NATS112: The Dynamic Earth Home
This course explores how the paradigm of plate tectonics organizes a study of the Earth. Earth
scientists see the world as ever-changing, and we will adopt that outlook. Thus, we will put
classical geology into the context of plate tectonics, and seek relationships between processes deep
in the Earth, such as magnetic field generation and mantle convection, with surface manifestations
such as earthquakes and volcanoes. The course is lab-based to give a feel for Earth processes and
for how one makes inferences about the deep Earth. Topics include the age and composition of the
Earth and solar system, minerals and rocks, plate tectonics, conduction and convection, seismology
and the structure of the Earth, and magnetic field generation. This course satisfies the college
science requirement.

literature. The course is required for natural science majors and is strongly recommended for
environmental studies majors. Prerequisite: Junior or senior standing.
 
PHIL175: Ethics Home
In this class, we will examine foundational questions in ethics. We will discuss the objectivity of
morality, the nature of well-being, and the rules that govern right conduct. Is there an objective
fact about right and wrong, or is morality relative to persons or cultures? What is it to live a
good life? What rules--if any--determine what is right or wrong? How should we make moral decisions?
Three applications of ethical theory will help guide our discussion: our duties to the less
fortunate, ethical vegetarianism, and the value of the environment. Grades will be assigned on the
basis of papers, exams, and class participation. No prerequisites.
 
PHIL208: CP Buddhism: History, Teachings and Practices Home
This course will examine Buddhist experience and expression in its diversity and regional variation
encompassing forms found in South, Southeast, Central, and East Asia. This is in an
interdisciplinary study that uses a combination of primary Buddhist texts in translation and
selections from the secondary literature on Buddhism, film, and other media. We will trace the major
threads of Buddhist thought, practices, and history while paying special attention to the ways in
which this Indian religion adapted to a wide range of cultures in Asia and now in the West.
 
PHIL226: Metaphysics, Minds, and Morals: Hume and Kant Home
Immanuel Kant is the most influential philosopher of the last 250 years. Much of the subsequent
history of philosophy is either a reaction to or development of Kant. His critical philosophy
introduced limits upon what human beings can know, while at the same time determining precisely what
it is that the human mind itself contributes to its experience of the world. With Kant, the human
mind is no longer considered a mere passive observer, but is instead understood to be an active
participant in the world that it structures. Among the surprising positions that Kant argues for in
his metaphysical works is the ideality or the subjective origin of space, time, and causality. His
moral philosophy seeks to establish analogously a principle of morality that is at once subjective
in origin, yet objectively valid. While Kant must be considered a revolutionary thinker in the
history of modern philosophy, his work must itself be understood largely as a response to the
skepticism of David Hume. Like Kant, Hume was interested in placing strict limits upon what it is
that human beings can claim to know. However, the skeptical arguments by which he achieves these
limits, especially his attacks on the notion of causality and the inductive method, have the effect
 
of apparently undermining the knowledge claims of physicists just as much as of the metaphysicians. We shall be interested in evaluating his arguments and determining how much of either science Kant is able to recover. Finally, we shall examine Hume¿s emotivist anti-rationalism in ethics as a sharp contrast to the rationalism of Kant¿s ethics. The course will involve the close reading of several seminal works in the history of philosophy, and there will be some emphasis especially on acquiring a precise understanding of Kant¿s positions and arguments. While we shall always remain sensitive to the historical context of when these works were written, the class will consider the problems that were of concern to Hume and Kant as if engaging contemporary philosophers in dialogue over these issues. Prerequisites: Junior or senior standing, one course in philosophy or political science, and a willingness to read diligently and engage thoughtfully with challenging philosophical works.
 
PHIL312: Philosophy of Science Home
In this course, we will examine a number of issues that arise from philosophical reflection on the
practice of science. These include: the nature of scientific theory change; the role that values
play in scientific inquiry; the relationship between observation and theory; the confirmation of
scientific theories; the nature of scientific explanation and natural laws; the debates between
scientific realism and antirealism; and the distinction between science and
pseudoscience. Prerequisite: Sophomore Seminar, and 200-level class in Social Studies, Science, or
Mathematics or permission of the instructor.

Prerequisite: Physics 101.
 
POLS100: Introduction to Politics Home
This course explores the concept of politics, its origins, its character, its various meanings, and
the territories it has carved for itself. It investigates what it means to think politically, to ask
political questions, and to engage in political action. It ventures into various articulations, in
the works of key political thinkers, of the relation between the self and the political order,
taking this to be fundamental to how we construe the subjects and objects of politics today.
Importantly, it sees politics as being characterized by an intense engagement with this question
among others, and looks to different instantiations of this process not only in contemporary
political and philosophical debates, but also in practical political action.
 
POLS209: Employment Discrimination Home
This module will provide a theoretical basis for understanding the history and constituional
foundation of Civil Rights and Liberties in the United States. In doing this the we will pay
particular attention to discrimination by race, class and sex in employment, labor and contracts.
 
The course analyzes the consequences of public policy and the law as they affect the lives of minority populations,, women, and the poor. Included is an examination of the changing theories of law in regard to the civil liberties of minorities, sexual identity and preference, and of the continuing debate surrounding policies of protectionism and affirmative action. Finally, the class explores the ethical and moral implications inherent in constituional decisionmaking and in the legislative process.
 
POLS226: American Idol: Experiments in American Political Thought Home
This course is a historical survey of American political thought from the founding to the present.
Modeled on the notorious TV show, this course stages a contest for the title of American Idol among
a wide array of figures, ranging from the Puritans to Tony Kushner, and from Horatio Alger to
Malcolm X, who have made the cut to the course to compete for the title. Together we will examine
questions like: What is "American" about American political thought? How has this identity come to
be and what has it represented over the course of its evolution? How have different thinkers
envisioned and critiqued the shape of the American state and culture? What makes democracy American
and America democratic? What are the peculiar ways in which time and space interact to yield the
concepts we call America and the American dream? What negotiation with history does the American
celebration of newness, possibility, hope, and amnesia entail? We discuss a variety of works, in
forms ranging from political treatises, journalism, philosophical writing, speeches, essays,
autobiographies, fiction, poems, Supreme Court decisions, music, plays, and films. This plurality of
forms--not to mention the course title's unabashed debt to features of American popular
culture--forces us to center on the relation between various forms of media and political
consciousness at individual and collective levels. Through the course, we familiarize ourselves with
the ideas of some key figures in the history of American political thought, practice theoretical and
critical engagement with them and the problems they are addressing, learn some skills of democratic
citizenship, explore our own views and political identity, and elect an American Idol for ourselves!
No prerequisites.
 
POLS316: CP The Feminine and the Political, or, How I Learnt to Stop Worrying & Love the Man Home
The course approaches the politics of marginal subjects through the women thinkers, writers,
characters & artists who confront the logics of colonialism, capitalism, racism, fascism and
patriarchy by thwarting the voices, fates, destinies, narratives--and loves--conferred to them by
oppressive and liberatory discourses. A key goal is to show that considering political experience &
judgment cannot merely involve aggregating different perspectives from discrete lenses of race,
class and gender; the substance common to these subjections needs to be addressed. Speech, disorder,
pathology, trauma, romance, desire, repulsion, faith, et al., become central to the critiques and
rearticulations of society and politics--indeed, of being--that emerge from the likes of Ingeborg
Bachmann, Simone Weil, Helene Cixous, Assia Djebar, Arundhati Roy, among others. We will work to
create a space of close reading and intimate intellectual consideration. The "woman" will not be
presumed to be an already known or knowable "object" of political work prior to following these
texts into the lifeworlds of capitalism, colonialism, liberalism and imperialism inscribed on all
our bodies and subjectivities--some more than others, to be sure--and into the politics they ask of
us. Prerequisite: Permission of instructor.

disorders, and forms of psychotherapy. It examines human beings as individuals and within the
context of society.
 
PSYC203: Social Psychology Home
Each individual is embedded in a variety of social contexts. This course focuses on the ways in
which interactions between people in groups produce change and on how these interchanges affect the
 
individuals involved. Topics include conformity to authority, social influence and persuasion, interpersonal attraction, attitude formation and change, and cooperation and competition. Major research strategies in social psychology will also be introduced. Prerequisite: Psychology 100 or permission of the instructor.

explicit, and students anticipating discomfort should consult the instructor before registering for
the course. Prerequisite: Psychology 100 or permission of the instructor.
 
PSYC220: The Emergence of Self, Other Mind, and Emotion Understanding: The Role of Brain and Experience Home
This course takes an interdisciplinary approach to examine advanced cognitive and social-emotional
abilities in humans. The purpose of this course is to address this age old-question, "what makes
humans unique?" using biological, neuro-physiological and psychological perspectives to understand
the emergence of advanced cognitive and social abilities in humans. Students will examine the
development of language, autobiographical memory, self awareness, emotion regulation, and person
perception from multiple perspectives based on three levels of analysis: (1) Social, which includes
descriptions of experience, behavior, and context; (2) Cognitive, which specifies information
processing mechanisms; and (3) Neural, which specifies neural systems or substrates that instantiate
the cognitive processes and the related social and emotional responses. Additionally, the course
will touch upon within and across species differences. The course, additionally, takes a lifespan
perspective focusing on critical and sensitive periods in development. Finally, we will emphasize
cultural and contextual factors that may influence these trajectories. Prerequisites: PSYC 100, or
BIO 100, or permission of instructor.

seminar, and students contribute formal presentations. Prerequisite: two or more intermediate
psychology courses.
 
PSYC315: CP Multicultural Psychology Home
How does one develop a racial identity? What do different cultures think about attractiveness,
gender, and love? How do different cultures interact in the workplace? What does religion have to do
with multiculturalism? These questions, and others like them, will be addressed in this course.
Multicultural Psychology is the systematic study of how groups values, beliefs and practices relate
to the way they think and feel. Readings, discussion, and films will be used to illuminate various
topics in the field. Overall objectives of this course are for students to learn to appraise and
criticize relevant psychological theories while also developing the ability to discover
multicultural psychology in daily life. Prerequisites: Sophomore Seminar, PSYC 100, and a 200-level
course in psychology, or permission of instructor.

and concepts learned in Intermediate Wheel Throwing and Intermediate Hand-building. Emphasis will be
on encouraging self expression by more in depth exploration of experimental ideas with form, concept
and firing. Focus will be on working towards developing a personal aesthetic and body of work.
Students will learn to develop and make their own clays and glazes and will focus more heavily on
firing principles and techniques. Through slides lectures and films, students will exposed to a
broader range of contemporary and historical ceramic art. The class will maintain a blog and
students will learn to photograph their work, write about it, and post blog entries.
 
SART403: Color Photography Studio Home
Seeing, thinking, and photographing in color are explored during this studio course. A variety of
color materials and processing methods, including digital photography, are introduced, with a major
focus on color negative printing. Independent work in the darkroom is explored and evaluated through
lectures, demonstrations, discussions, and critiques. The visual history of color photography and
alternative color approaches are studied through a series of presentations. Each student presents a
portfolio of prints and a slide portfolio at the conclusion of the semester. Studio fee. Students
supply their own camera, processed film, printing paper, and related supplies. Prerequisite: Studio
Art 102 or equivalent experience.
 
SART429: Artists Books Studio Home
The design and structure of the book form is studied through work with drawing, painting,
printmaking, photography, computer graphics, or with a combination of media. Initial projects deal
with the interaction between words and images and culminate in the production of simple books. Later
in the semester, each student plans and produces a complete book or a series of books. Basic forms
of bookbinding and other presentation possibilities are explored. The conception of the book is left
up to the individual and may range from a traditional approach to a highly experimental form. In all
cases, the book is explored as a unique form of creative expression and visual communication.
Lectures, presentations, and critiques supplement studio work. Studio fee. Prerequisite: At least
one 200-level studio course.
 
SART435: Painting Studio Home
Students explore materials, techniques, painting styles, and color theory. Painting with acrylics is
emphasized, though students may also work in oils and are urged to work also in watercolor, pastel,
casein, oil pastel, and all drawing media. The course requires an extensive sketchbook, the
completion of major projects, and additional work to be established with the instructor. Studio fee.
Gesso, lumber, and some materials are supplied; students supply paints, brushes, and canvas.
Prerequisite: Permission of the instructor.
 
SART456: Advanced Projects in Photography Home
This course is designed to give serious students a chance to do an ambitious self-designed project
within the critical framework and structure of a class. Weekly class critiques of work in progress
will form the backbone of this class. Concurrent with studio work each student will give two
presentations on a photographer, or group of photographers, whose work relates to their project.
The student giving the presentation will be responsible for preparing images for discussion,
assigning reading to the class and leading the class discussion. In addition, each student will
write a critical essay on a topic they develop. Photographic projects will culminate in a
fully-formed, significant body of work.
 
SOC115: CP Race, Ethnicity, Class, and Gender Home
This course examines the "socially-constructed" nature of race, ethnicity and gender by focusing on
historical and contemporary articulations of race, ethnicity, class, and gender as they relate to
social outcomes. Students will explore the evolution of these categories, namely how and why they
were created, and how they have changed over time. Also, students will learn about racial and
ethnic discrimination in housing, employment, banking, the criminal justice system, and other
 
institutions. Students will also examine the history of gender inequality in American society. Contemporary articulations of gender inequality will be examined in the labor market, unpaid labor in the home, U.S. childcare policy, popular culture, and in interpersonal relationships. Additionally, this course also examines the structural causes of class inequality. Students will be exposed to the various competing theoretical perspectives regarding why we have poverty in the U.S. and explore how changes in the structure of the nation's political-economy have increased class inequality while creating the "middle class squeeze". The class will also discuss the "financial elite" and their role in shaping policies that exacerbate class inequality. No prerequisites.
 
SOCS223: CP Cross-cultural Perspectives on Human Rights Home
This seminar aims to provide students with a broad working knowledge of human rights as both an
intellectual discourse and a realm of political action. Beginning with a close reading of the 1945
UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which marks the emergence of modern human rights
discourse, we will discuss the roots of the UN Declaration in the French and American Revolutions,
the catalyst provided by the Holocaust, and the ways in which the Declaration has been applied,
extended, and frequently ignored by nations and individuals in the 50+ years since it was ratified.
Specific topics, examined across a range of cultures and countries, will include torture, freedom of
speech, freedom of religion, women¿s rights, and economic, social & cultural rights including the
right to health and the right to development (as well as the right to avoid development). We will
ask whether it is possible to establish ¿universal¿ human rights, examining the substance of
critiques that human rights standards are biased in favor of Western socio-political formations, and
will focus on the roles of major actors in the violations and protection of human rights, from
official human rights monitoring bodies and tribunals, NGOs, national and local governments,
security forces, militias and religious groups, as well as individual victims and their families and
human rights activists of every stripe, including street protesters, photographers and film-makers,
doctors and lawyers.
 
SOCS322: Proseminar II Home
Did God will the world into existence, and must it end with the Second Coming of Christ? Is the
class struggle the motor of history, and must the end of history (sometimes Marx called it
"pre-history") be Communism? Is competition the motor of evolution, making the fiercely competitive
civilization of late nineteenth century Europe the benchmark of human development? If we might balk
at the assumption that the sole purpose of our parents' lives has been to produce us, what has led
us so often, in our theologies, histories, and philosophies, to posit teleological explanations such
as the preceding for other human lives and events? It may be, in other words, that there was only
chaos "in the beginning;" that it heralds no destiny for humanity, divine, natural, or rational; and
that the attempt to discover the origins of things is the pursuit of a "chimera" (something hoped
for, but impossible to achieve). In order better to understand our persistent fascination with
beginnings and the ends they may (or may not) reveal to us, this course proposes a critical analysis
of creation stories we have told ourselves in the west, from the ancient Greeks and Hebrews to the
early decades of the twentieth century. We will study venerable tales of the dawn of time, modern
tales of founding fathers (or Bands of Brothers, in Freud's case), and meta-narratives of
biological, psychological, social, political and cultural development. Included will be texts such
as The biblical book of Genesis; Hesiod's Theogony; Rousseau's Discourse on Inequality; Darwin's
Origin of Species; Nietzsche's Genealogy of Morals; Engels' Origin of the Family, Private Property
and the State; Hurston's Their Eyes Were Watching God; Lemaitre's A Homogeneous Universe of Constant
Mass and Growing Radius; "The Declaration of Independence;" and Freud's Totem and Taboo. These we
will read in conjunction with the works of contemporary thinkers (e.g. Michel Foucault, Stephen J.
Gould, E. O. Wilson, Julia Kristeva, Donna Haraway, Francis Fukuyama, Gayle Rubin, etc.) who extend
and/or critique the positions they take or imply, in an effort to appreciate how these stories of
creation can inform our contemporary understandings of the human condition and its prospects.

SPAN210: Had We Been Christians: The Storywriters and Their Works in Spain Home
The literature of Spain has always been plagued by the religious conflicts of its citizens, creating
a rich and complex number of works that deal with the different aspects of those discrepancies. We
examine short stories written by people living in the Peninsula during three distinct time periods
to study the influence that religion and the restrictions of the Vatican had on this literature. We
will examine works from the Middle Ages, The Golden Age and the Modern Era to evaluate the
evolution, or stagnation, of the Spanish short story. This course is taught entirely in Spanish.
Prerequisite: SPAN 205 or above, or permission of instructor.
 
SPAN326: Periphery to Center: Prostitution in Hispanic Literature Home
 
Prostitution is, as the saying goes, the oldest profession in the world. If that is the case, then
the brothel is the oldest business. In the world of Hispanic fiction, the brothel is the place
where key events concerning their plots and characters take place. In Hispanic literature, the
prostitute has maintained her superior status over other women because she has had the freedom to
control her body and her money. This course examines a selection of literary texts from the Hispanic
world (Spain and America) to evaluate the role that the prostitute - and the brothel - plays in
these societies. Jo Labanyi suggests that a novel serves as a starting point for the societal
changes that an author wants to make. According to this theory, the role that the prostitute has in
literature seems to mirror her position in society. We do not seek to solve a problem, rather to
study the importance that writers from the 15th to the 20th century have seen in a profession that
has been condemned as a problem. We will see that the ¿alcahueta¿ in Fernando de Rojas' novel is
the only character capable of making decisions and living as she pleases while Vargas Llosa's ¿la
brasileña¿ serves as the outlet for one man's sexual frustrations. This polarity in the function of
the prostitute is only the beginning in a study of a complex character that has influenced societal
changes by the ambiguity of its role in it.
 
SS251: Sophomore Seminar: Voices Against the Chorus Home
All first-semester sophomores are required to take Sophomore Seminar. This seminar explores the
development of some of the ideas central to our definition of the modern world. Its focus is on how
19th- and 20th-century thinkers confronted the accepted order of things, how they challenged
accepted ideas, and how they constructed the radically different conceptions of the world that we
have inherited. Texts include Darwin's The Descent of Man, Marx and Engels' The Communist
Manifesto, Nietzsche's The Genealogy of Morals, Freud's Civilization and Its Discontents, Tagore's
The Home and the World, DuBois' The Souls of Black Folk, Woolf's To the Lighthouse, and Kafka's The
Trial. Class sessions are supplemented by lectures that provide some context to the readings,
presented by faculty and by guests.
 
THEA104: Production Workshop Home
In this module, each student develops one or more roles, culminating in a black box production of a
one-act play or a series of multiple short plays. By going through the production process from start
to finish, students learn how to research, develop, rehearse, and perform a role in a play,
balancing each individual¿s needs with those of the group. Through limited participation in
technical and managerial aspects of the production, students gain a deeper awareness of the teamwork
necessary for any theatrical endeavor. This module is intended for students who have not yet taken
the 200-level Production Course. Previous theater experience is recommended but not required.

THEA108: Costume and Prop Design and Execution Home
This is a hands on course where students will learn the process and general skills needed for
theatrical costume and prop execution from inception to finished product. They will learn to assess
a play for its needs; research time periods and places, and adapt them to a play. Strong emphasis
will be placed on planning effectively in order to produce real costumes and props for a given play,
as envisioned by a director, within a budget and a proscribed period of time. Some time will be
spent on getting input from a director, actors and other designers, using that information in a
design concept and getting final approval before starting. Along with methods of effective research
and planning, students will be exposed to the rudimentary skills needed to find, purchase, adapt
and/or construct costumes and props.
 
THEA109: Topics in Theater: Directors and Designers Talking Home
 
Light is both a fundamental force of our universe and a fundamental part of our human existence.
Through light we experience our world, understand shape, know the time of day, and can be made to
feel elated, frightened, or angry. In the theatre, lighting has tremendous dramaturgical power. It
can tell us location, create mood, raise tension, or put us at peace. In this class we will learn
how to really see light, connect our experiences with light to a text and create lighting
environments to best express the dramaturgy of that text. Some theatre experiene is helpful but not
required.
 
THEA118: Stagecraft II Home
This course will provide advanced knowledge in the theories of drafting, constructing, handling and
moving various types of stage scenery. The successful student will be able to demonstrate an
understanding and appreciation of the advanced technology inherent in the theatre. Students will be
expected to develop problem solving skills through the use of research, thought, discussion and the
use of standard theatrical conventions. Open discussions will provide opportunities for questions
and exchanges of related topics.
 
THEA206: Theater Production Home
Students of different experience and abilities learn about all aspects of theater by participating
in the College's productions as actors, directors, technicians, carpenters, designers, costumers,
and stage managers, as well as doing publicity and front-of-house management. Prerequisite: Theater
115, a 200-level Theater course, and an audition.
 
THEA216: Theater Practicum Home
An extension of the Stagecraft Module, the Practicum course will further the students theatrical
experience by providing an alternative method of teaching and development. The course will be based
on a seminar and/or laboratory environment to foster greater understanding and comprehension of the
theories of theatrical production that then culminate in the mounting of a fully staged production.
Not a lecture course by any means, students would gain valuable experience in problem solving,
initiation of ideas and concepts and the development of these ideas and concepts through "hands on"
experiences. Integrally involved in the construction of scenery, acquisition and building of
properties, hanging/focusing of lighting fixtures and costuming, the student will gain valuable
knowledge as to the actual implementation of these aspects of a production.
 
THEA219: Viewpoints II & Composition Home
This course builds on the Viewpoints tools introduced in Theater 117. Over the course of the
semester, we will further develop our understanding and mastery of the physical viewpoints of time
and space: Tempo, duration, kinesthetic response, repetition, shape, gesture, architecture, spatial
relationship, and topography and the vocal viewpoints. As we progress through the Viewpoints work,
we will also learn compositional tools. During the course of the semester, students will compose
original pieces for the stage using the Viewpoints and Compositional tools both individually and in
groups to be presented in a final showing. Prerequisite: Theater 117.
 
THEA220: Comic Acting Home
Comic Acting provides students with the opportunity to investigate the theory of humor and the
performance of comedy. Exercises in improvisation, movement, rhythm and physical comedy will serve
as the basis for the comic texts that will be performed at the end of the semester. Research will
consist of studying comic theory and comic performances. The course will look at human folly in its
many guises and by doing so reveal the joy and humanity at the heart of laughter. Prerequisites: For
200-level, THEA 100 or THEA 117. For 300-level, THEA 100 or THEA 117, and THEA 230, THEA 204, or
