Course description
Have you ever been curious about the cultures that underlie your passions? In this class, we will study the world around you and the cultures that make up our play, work, relationships, and sense of self. Whatever your passions are - stories, natural environment, activism, food, film, or history - you can find a place for it in Culture & Community. The course will begin with an exploration of pressing topics, then transition into researching contemporary issues and problems-largely be determined by student interest. Our course will culminate with individual multi-modal research projects where you put your cultural literacy and research skills to the test.

Section information
**Please note: This class has ENGL 1010-35A (MWF 10:00-10:50) as a co-requisite.** Have you ever considered a story or narrative to be a parasite of your subconscious? In this course, we will explore how stories form our psyches, and in turn, our world. From Bitcoin to the Great Recession, let’s learn more about how our economy is not just based on the objectivity of numbers, but also the subjectivity of humanity’s most base mode: storytelling. Together we will read, listen to, and watch a diverse selection of media including Narrative Economics, by Robert Shiller, and Adam McKay’s film, The Big Short. Our semester will culminate in a creative final research project that will allow you to explore video and audio editing around a personal, cultural, or economic narrative of your choosing. Consider this course especially if you are planning to major in: Business, Psychology, Sociology, Economics, or Exploratory Studies.
