Permission required - contact Carrie Sauter at casuter@umbc.edu
INDS 430 is a special topics course called "Food: An Interdisciplinary Exploration". The Schedule of Classes provides this thorough description:
American farmer and writer Wendell
Berry has written, "How we eat determines, to a considerable extent, how
the world is used." We may similarly assert that how the current food
system is structured determines, to a large extent, how we eat. Almost
all food carries a complex story interwoven with politics, environmental
consequences, human health and human history. One intriguing story is
how the American food system relies heavily on fossil fuel: the average
food item is transported between 1,300 and 2,000 miles from farm to
table. Another story is about how the national school lunch program
grew with multiple purposes: war readiness, commodity price support, and
childhood nutrition. These complexities resulted in nutritionally
deficient foods in many school cafeterias. Through case studies and
other research, students will examine such questions as: Who are the
stakeholders in food system reform? What are the implications for
health care costs of food system reform? What are the
barriers/challenges to change?
Held on Tuesdays from 1-3:45. Ideal for juniors and seniors! INDS 430 is required of all INDS majors but is open to any student who has this interest.

For All the World to See Receives Positive Review from Sun
The exhibition currently on display in the Center for Art, Design and Visual Culture, For All the World to See: Visual Culture and the Struggle for Civil Rights received praise in the Sun article released today, “Using Images to Change History” written by Lionel Foster.
Read the article here: “Using Images to Change History: UMBC exhibit shows how African-Americans have portrayed themselves and how they have been portrayed by others”
The author reviews For All the World to See by speaking about the exhibition’s impact on him personally, and discussing the ability certain objects have to captivate its audiences. He also notes the way in which the exhibition’s curator, CADVC Research Professor and Chief Curator Maurice Berger, is particularly successful in presenting a powerful story.
For All the World to See is on display in the CADVC until March 10.
