Course Description
The “American Experience” has varied with the gender, race, ethnicity, and social class of the participant. The purpose of this course is to examine this diversity of experience throughout the country’s history. The course places individual and group experiences within the social, economic, and political contexts of various historical periods, exploring group differences in experience and perspective, as well as the ideals and values that define American civic culture. The overall goal of this course is to develop a socio-historical understanding of the problems and strengths inherent in a pluralistic society.
