HUM401 - American Voices

3 credit hour(s)
Students contemplate the idea of multiculturalism in America, and the role it may play in their own lives. The historical and cultural importance of notions such as “The American Dream,” “American Family Values,” and America as a “nation of immigrants” are examined in close readings of a wide array of American writers. Students are guided in methods to best engage in the readings, and are asked to respond in writing — using both formal (traditional papers) and less formal (online class discussions) venues. Students develop critical and analytical skills that will be applicable in many other areas of life.
