Sec LC2 MW 11:00 am - 3:20pm 10 credits
CKR, SS- This class isn’t about fairy tales or happily ever after — it’s about real-life
narratives and your story. In this 10 credit learning community, combining Sociology
150 and English 102, we will investigate fairness (or the lack thereof) using the
sociological imagination. As we deconstruct institutionalized inequalities, looking
at housing, income, education and more, we will uncover how we are all affected by
inequalities as individuals and as a society. This class will provide you with the
tools to research and analyze the issues related to “unfairness” and give you guidance
in your journey as you reflect on the role you play within your community. Mirror,
Mirror on the Wall – let’s make this world fairer for all.
