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 1010-34A (MWF, 2:10-3:00) as a co-requisite.** Forbes magazine recently declared creativity “the skill of the future” and others have claimed it is as important to education as literacy. But what exactly is creativity? Who can be creative and how does one live a creative life? Furthermore, how is culture shaped and influenced by creative individuals and movements? In this class, we will use a variety of texts, active learning and discussion, and a self-designed research project to pursue these questions, develop our critical and creative thinking, and build your own creative practice. Students from ALL majors and disciplines who want to bring more creative energy to any part of their life are encouraged to register.
