WST 225 Women and Social Change

Enables students to gain an understanding of the role of the systems of oppression in society and avenues available to them to create both individual and collective change through social action. Each student becomes aware of their ability to enact change and the empowerment that process provides. We will explore issues of diversity including, but not limited to, race, class, gender, age and disability. The course emphasizes critical thinking skills and is informed by feminist pedagogy.
