SALEM 130 - Transitions: A Changing Culture

3 Hour(s)

This course offers students an interdisciplinary introduction to the liberal arts and enhances the critical thinking and communication skills necessary for academic success. Students explore significant social issues in a global and historical context and participate in collaborative creative projects. The social issues that form course topics vary, but all include critical questions regarding concepts of health-whether personal, communal, environmental, or global-and emphasize relevance to women. The course emphasizes communication skills: speaking, writing, information literacy, and using technology as a tool in communication. A writing-intensive course-does not meet the writing intensive general education requirement.
