Course Information

A true leader views the world through cultural lenses.

Study ethnic and racial groups' experiences in the United States and how they shaped the current society with their social justice efforts.

A cross-disciplinary major

How have race and ethnicity been defined, constructed, and applied in different places and times? How do they intersect with other ways of understanding difference, such as gender, class, nation, and religion? In this cross-disciplinary major, you'll answer these questions by working closely with dedicated professors from across multiple fields of study. From Theatre Arts, English, Political Science, and more, you'll graduate with a global worldview that will make you a marketable candidate in your future careers.
