CGH 323
Disability and Society

None

This course will help students develop an understanding of the integral meaning disability holds in contemporary society and how society, politics, and medicine, in turn, impact the disabled. In class, we will explore scholarship and show how disability is constructed by society, policy, and medicine. Students will then make recommendations to improve disability accommodations and services in the community. Ultimately, they will gain knowledge and experience to aid any future professional or personal interactions they will have with the disabled.

AAS/ANTH/GS 317
So You Want to Save the World

African American Studies and Anthropology and Global Studies

We are often motivated by the desire to “give back”-- feed the hungry, heal the sick, and help those less fortunate than ourselves. Anthropological research on humanitarian aid, development projects, and other interventions meant to improve human lives in various contexts shows us why these efforts often go awry. Focusing primarily on settings outside the U.S., students will consider the pitfalls of developmental and humanitarian interventions as well as the crucial role of local knowledge in addressing complex global problems.
