EDUC 110 Introduction to Educational Studies 6 credits
This course will focus on education as a multidisciplinary field of study. We will explore the meanings of education within individual lives and institutional contexts, learn to critically examine the assumptions that writers, psychologists, sociologists and philosophers bring to the study of education, and read texts from a variety of disciplines. What has “education” meant in the past? What does “education” mean in contemporary American society? What might “education” mean to people with differing circumstances and perspectives? And what should “education” mean in the future? Open only to first-and second-year students.

EDUC 275 Inclusion or Refusal?: Educational Justice Models 6 credits
This era of local, state, and national pushback against policies and practices of “diversity, equity, and inclusion” provides us with an opportune moment to examine the possibilities and limitations of this framing as a pathway for educational justice. Drawing on critiques of liberal frameworks of educational equity by Indigenous scholars and scholars of color, this course will ask what educational justice might look like beyond representation and belonging, especially in higher educational institutions.
Recommended Preparation: One 100-level Educational Studies course.
Extra Time Required: There will likely be off-campus site visits to schools and/or engagement with relevant campus programming around the topic.
