    <div><br></div>
    <div>This course explores the scientific, aesthetic, and ethical dimensions of thought and behavior. This course is oriented toward that exploration of questions that are both personal and global in their orientation. For example: What is my faith in the future? What do I believe about others? What is the relationship I want with the earth? When and where do I experience sacred? There will be opportunities for conversation to occur around topics such as these; literally a “turning to one another” in order to expand and inform our understanding of how our beliefs and behaviors have the power to transform.</div>

    <li>focus on learning by sharing knowledge and experience through writing, discussions, and presentations…key skills your faculty and employers require.</li>

    <div>Charlotte Keniston</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>In this course, students will gain knowledge of the emergent field of food system studies and use written and oral communication tools to reflect on their personal interaction with the food system. The core curriculum of this course is one developed by the Center for a Livable Future, “Teaching the Food System.” Through it, and additional readings and audiovisual material, students will acquire and reflect on the fundamental concepts of food system studies, moving from field to table and beyond. Students will reflect on what they are learning through short writings and class discussions and through a final project, a digital story (2-3 minute original video using the student’s own voice and images) reflecting on their personal role in the food system. What was the last food you ate? Who produced it? Packaged it? Distributed it? Prepared it? In this course, students will gain knowledge of the emergent field of food system studies, learning about the social, environmental, and economic implications of the foods around them.</div>

    <div>An introduction to the ways in which race shapes discourses, cultural practices, and public policies related to maternity, motherhood, and child rearing in contemporary America. This course will explore how each of these conversations intersect and alter when explored through the lens of race. Are African American mothers judged more harshly in the justice system, pop culture or in public discourse versus non-black mothers? We will explore issues like these surrounding maternity by reviewing case studies, film and pop culture representations. Students will engage in critical thinking which will be the focus of group projects and presentations by using current research.</div>
