A central purpose of this two-week online course is to introduce and explore the politics and workings of American governance. The stakes for the study of American politics have never been higher. As political polarization intensifies, now at levels not experienced since the American Civil War, and the political environment is saturated by negative partisanship, rancor and disinformation; it is only by developing a thorough, systematic, evidence-based understanding of American politics that we can form informed perspectives, understand the views of others, and identify our own role in sustaining American democracy. Through the course we will focus on “big ideas” and adopt a “political development” perspective, understanding contemporary American politics as part of the evolution of American political ideas, institutions, and interests. We will explore both foundational and historical trends, watershed events, as well as breaking and contemporary national political developments related to presidential and congressional elections, and important social and economic policies, such as abortion, marijuana, immigration, voting. Attributes: Politics Major American Politics (PMAP), American Studies Gateway Course.

This course surveys the musical and social trends that resulted in the emergence of rock and roll as an important musical and cultural force in America. The course traces the roots of rock, blues, and country styles, showing how they merged with popular music. Students examine periods from the 1950s to the present, along with Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, the Beatles, the British invasion, folk music, Bob Dylan, jazz and art rock, Jimi Hendrix, the west coast movement, and the music industry. Students learn to understand, discuss, and differentiate between stylistic periods and their historical relevance to American culture.

Subject areas will include blues and its origins, jazz and modernism, the obstacles of race in music, the death of rhythm and blues, rock's evolution in the 1950s, rap and hip hop culture, and issues in both postmodernism and perverse as seen by many music and art critics. 

Ancient Philosophy
PHIL 2200 (01) (CRN 51181) (3 credits)
7/8/24 – 8/8/24 Mon.-Thurs., 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. ONLINE
Professor: Daniel Davenport
In this course we will investigate how the earliest practitioners of Western philosophy conceived of their own activity. The word philosophy' stems from two ancient Greek words and means, literally, 'love of wisdom.' A lover of wisdom is one who pursues wisdom rather than possesses it; consequently, we can think of ancient philosophers as founding a history of inquiry into questions whose relevance for human beings ensures their persistence, questions like: What is the nature of the universe? What can be known? and What in any given situation is the right thing to do? Prerequisite: PHIL 1101

This laboratory provides students with a greater understanding of electromagnetic phenomena, wave phenomena, and optics, and supports PHYS 1172. Measurements of microscopic quantities, like the charge and mass of the electron, give students an opportunity to explore the structure of matter. Other experiments involve the physics of electrical currents, electric properties of bulk matter, magnetic fields and their effect on beams, wave phenomena, and the nature of light and its interaction with optical materials. This course trains students in experimental measurements, data analysis, error analysis, deductive thinking, and instrumentation. Students complete a weekly lab report. Corequisite: PHYS 1172.

American Public Policy
POLI 2109 (01) (CRN 51530)
7/8/24 – 8/16/24
Professor: Gayle Alberda
This course section fulfills a MSJ2 Signature Element requirement and a MWAC Signature Element requirement.
Public policy results from complex interactions between political actors, elected officials, bureaucrats, interest groups, political activists, corporations, citizens, the media, and governing structures and rules. The policy making process is the lifeblood of the American political system. This course explores current policy debates, key models and theories that seek to explain public policy, and the significant role politics plays in the policy making process. Students will learn how public policies are formulated, understand current tools and techniques used in making policy, and gain the ability to assess policy options.
