BIO 675K 01 | TP: Cancer Biology (NON-LAB)(SE) 4 credits |
Instructor:
Amareshwar Singh
Description: 4cr Thirty years ago, Cancer was a poorly understood and usually deadly disease. This is no longer the case. Today, we know that a cell becomes malignant as a result of changes to its genetic material and that accompanying biological characteristics of the cell also change over a progression of steps that can take years to reach the stage at which a cell becomes malignant and develops into a tumor. The hope to cure cancer relies on the better knowledge of cancer biology and on the development of targeted cancer therapies such as nanotechnology as a platform foruse in specific cancers. 8:00 AM - 9:05 AM MWF Location: DSC 155 Capacity: 30 |

How are identities (national, personal, racial, ethnic, gendered, sexual, disabled) forged in relation to a larger body politic or imagined community, and how does literature mediate that relation? The content of this course will shift, sometimes focusing on particular themes or ideas, sometimes focusing on historical period, but the course aims will remain consistent: to better understand America through inquiry into the diverse literary productions that circulate in the U.S.| to better understand literature by considering its relation to the cultures, communities, imaginations, and politics of America.

Instructor:
Paul Kirkland
Description: 4cr This course is a survey of major African-American political thinkers. It will examine the writings of African American political authors and their contribution to contemporary political theory and the history of political philosophy. It will consider the issue of race in American through reading authors like Frederick Douglass, W.E.B. Dubois, and contemporary critical race theory. The political science department has not offered such a course at Carthage in some time and this course will provide a needed supplement to other courses in American political thought and modern political philosophy. It will examine the role of race in defining American thought and do so in terms of broad questions about the meaning of equality, the structure of democracy, the formation of identity, the integration or disintegration of community. It will ask these questions in the context of considering the ways in which matters of identity and politics are connected to questions about fundamental human longings. By considering classics of African American political writing along with more contemporary works on critical race theory, the course will show the engagement of political theory with questions emerging from specific questions of race. 2:20 PM - 4:00 PM TR Location: LH 225 Capacity: 30 |

They have shaped our concepts, our laws, our institutions, our history, and our cultures. To reexamine the parameters on which universal thought is founded requires a reevaluation of all the basic tools of analysis, including dialectics. Not in order to discard it, but to make it more effective" (Monique Wittig). This course will examine the feminist critique of culture as a way of examining our philosophical heritage and as a way of understanding the relationship of culture to academic inquiry.

Description: 4cr The study of the countries in Africa has frequently focused on public events: colonialism, political change, war, government actions, and the formal economy. In recent years, researchers have begun to explore in more depth how women's lives are impacted by these events, and how women in Africa are active participants in the various sectors of their societies. This course will look at life in various African countries through the eyes of women and will examine how women of Africa actively engage in and are affected by political, cultural, and economic events both domestically and internationally. Themes will include human rights issues of women, the impact of modernity and tradition on women's lives, images of appropriate female behavior, economic hardship and survival techniques, cultural issues surrounding marriage and motherhood, and women's participation in the public spheres of their countries. 10:30 AM - 11:35 AM MWF Location: LH 225 Capacity: 7 |

WMG 3100 1 | Literature and Gender (HUM) (DIV) (WI) (WC) Crosslisted with ENG 3100 4 credits |
Instructor:
Shannon Brennan
Description: 4cr In this course the literature chosen for study will reflect issues relevant to considerations of gender. In some instances, works will be chosen in order to explore the idea of how literature portrays what it means to be gendered. In other instances, literature will be chosen in order to explore how writers of one gender portray characters of the opposite gender. In some instances the choice of literature will be based on extending awareness of writers who, because of their gender, have not historically been included within the canon. The historical and social contexts of these works will be an integral part of the conversation within the course. 9:50 AM - 11:30 AM TR Location: LH 300 Capacity: 8 |

WMG 3110 01 | Women's and Gender Studies Theory (DIV) Crosslisted with POL 3110 4 credits |
Instructor:
Ellen Hauser
Description: 4cr This is a reading seminar that will investigate the writings of feminist theorists as well as the critical questions raised by feminism pertinent to the academic disciplines. "Sexes (gender), difference between the sexes, man, woman, race, black, white, nature are at the core of [the straight minds'] set of parameters. They have shaped our concepts, our laws, our institutions, our history, and our cultures. To reexamine the parameters on which universal thought is founded requires a reevaluation of all the basic tools of analysis, including dialectics. Not in order to discard it, but to make it more effective" (Monique Wittig). This course will examine the feminist critique of culture as a way of examining our philosophical heritage and as a way of understanding the relationship of culture to academic inquiry. Prerequisites: WMG 1100 or POL Major or Minor o Sophomore Standing or higher or permission from the instructor. 9:15 AM - 10:20 AM MWF Location: LH 225 Capacity: 10 |
