Desc:This course investigates the claim that race and place are mutually constitutive; that is, race shapes how we perceive and organize places, and places in turn shape our understandings and experiences of race. This investigation will span time - from the beginning of colonization in North America to the present - and space - from rural communities to central cities. Students will primarily use a sociological lens, but will also draw insights from history, political science, demography, and philosophy. Topics of study include segregation, housing, the criminal legal system, schooling, work, and more. This seminar is an upper-level course intended for advanced sociology majors and minors, as well as graduate students. Prerequisites: Completion of one Sociology course with C- or better or permission of instructor.

Home/Ident

A course may be either a “Home” course or an “Ident” course.

A “Home” course is a course that is created, maintained and “owned” by one academic department (aka the “Home” department). The “Home” department is primarily responsible for the decision making and logistical support for the course and instructor.

An “Ident” course is the exact same course as the “Home” (i.e. same instructor, same class time, etc), but is simply being offered to students through another department for purposes of registering under a different department and course number.

Students should, whenever possible, register for their courses under the department number toward which they intend to count the course. For example, an AFAS major should register for the course "Africa: Peoples and Cultures" under its Ident number, L90 306B, whereas an Anthropology major should register for the same course under its Home number, L48 306B.
