ANT 230 Hunters and Gatherers

Hunting and gathering is a way of life, not simply a subsistence technique. Ninety-nine percent of human evolutionary history involved this kind of life, and our biology as a species was created through this mode of existence. In this ethnographically oriented course we will study several hunter-gatherer societies including the Ju'/hoansi, the Mbuti, the Australian aborigines, and the Inuit. Special attention will be given to understanding the traditional life and world view of hunter-gatherers, but we will also focus on how recent political and economic events are changing their lives.

ANT 320 Anthropology and the Museum

This course explores the complicated and sometimes fractious relationship between anthropology and museums of ethnography and natural history in both North America and abroad. Museums are ideological sites that produce particular (self-serving) understandings of Us and Them. Since the later-1800s, museums have figured prominently in how the public learns about non-western cultures while also being a place of legitimate anthropological research. As well, some of anthropology's more significant academic debates have been fought out in the museum. These overlapping relationships are the subject of this course.

ANT 350 International Development

The aim of this course is to understand the global and local aspects of the social, cultural, economic, and political development processes in nations and societies of the Global South. It will highlight how social scientists approach the complex issues involved in international development. The first part of the course will cover mainstream international development theory whereby we will analyze basic assumptions underlying competing economic and social theories of international development. The second part of the course will explore the environmental and social dimensions of development often overlooked by mainstream international development theory and practice. In relation to the environment, we will focus on issues of environmental degradation and sustainability. Course materials will cover global trends in climate change, but we will focus on case studies to elucidate sustainable development issues. Under social aspects of development, we will investigate contemporary trends that emphasize local ownership and participation. Among other topics, this section will look at the role of NGOs and gender development of the Global South. Prerequisite: SCA course; or permission of instructor. Cr. 3.

More Information
TOPIC: MULTIPLES - Alternative Delivery Methods is a multi-disciplinary course in which students will get an opportunity to further their interests within the broader art studio practices, all while reconsidering their work and their medium of choice in relation to the multiplicity, and alternative delivery methodologies of art to the public. Students will be encouraged to develop projects furthering their respective studio practices, all while working within the concept of creating more than one. Different 2D and 3D immediate technologies that artists have commonly turned to in order to democratize the delivery of their work will be covered in the course via several group projects. Projects will range from 2D processes of Silk-screen, Photo and Digital Publishing, Portfolio and/or Artist's Book Publication, to 3D Non-toxic low-cost Mold-making and Casting possibilities. Function Design, Fabrication, Furniture Production, Textile, Tile and Pattern Making, Architectural/Modular and Non-Art Design, Graphic Design, Fine Art Presentation, Installation, and much more will all be considered within the concepts of multiplicity, matrix formation, production, and delivery. While Multiples is the premise for the course, students should expect an Open-Source approach to the content of their projects and be willing to contribute their discipline's knowledge to the studio practice.


This class meets once a week, for a combined total class time of 5 1/2 hours with a fifteen minute break between two 2 3/4 hour class meetings. Students are required to attend both meeting times.

BIO 131 Our Relationship with the Living World

The overall focus of this course is our relationship with the living world, and this version of the course will focus specifically on our relationship with microorganisms. Both lecture materials and at-home experimentation (labs) will guide you as you learn about microscopic organisms and explore how they are intricately woven into every aspect of our lives. We will touch on what might be familiar aspects of health and disease and spend even more time on the more positive and essential roles they play in our lives on the planet. As you explore these topics, you will also gain an understanding of the process of scientific inquiry and work on skills related to scientific discovery and communication. Prerequisites: Writing, Reading, and Inquiry 1 or concurrent, Quantitative Reasoning or concurrent. Cr. 4.
