SCD 135 - Seminar in Media, Politics & Change

4 Credits

In this first-year seminar course students examine several key turning points in 20th century political and social history. In particular, students consider the role that popular culture and mass media play in shaping and processing as well as resisting the call for progressive change. Over the course of this study students refine reading, media literacy, and critical-thinking skills, and connect course material with the current media and political landscape.
