Humanities Arts Cultural Stu 0296 - Critical Media Studies: Division II Projects

The course is designed to further develop students' understanding of critical media studies, and to provide the structure and space to conceive of and successfully carry out a related (non-fiction) project. The course is tagged as part of the Art & Politics Learning Collaborative (LC) and thus our collective work, and students' individual projects, will engage in some way with the LC's urgent challenge: "How can art and politics intersect to challenge dominant narratives and create new visions for community?" Division II students can use the course to satisfy the Division II Supported Projects requirement, and Division III students can use it as an Advanced Educational Activity (AEA). [Students, including second-year Division I students, should have completed one or more college-level media studies courses in a prior semester. Please email the professor with questions.]

Art and Politics Students should expect to spend 6-8 hours weekly on work and preparation outside of class time
