WGSS 442 - Gender and Community Activism

(3 credits)
Prerequisite: WGSS 240 (formerly INTD 240) or consent of instructor
This course combines community service with classroom instruction, focusing on critical, reflective thinking as well as personal and civic responsibility around salient gender issues. The course will involve activities that address local needs while developing academic skills and commitment to the community. As such, it turns knowledge into action by completing service-learning projects with community partners. In the classroom, students learn theories and methods of analyzing gender roles historically and in contemporary society, examining the importance of activism on behalf of women, men and GLBTQ persons.
