Sociology 106 - Race,Gender, Class & Ethnicity

Introduction to Sociology. Analysis of the consequences of membership in racial, gender, class and ethnic groups on social, economic and political life.
(Gen.Ed. SB, DU)

Open to first year Exploring Society RAP students in Moore Hall. Students in Exploring Society RAP in Moore Hall will enroll together in "Race, Gender, Class and Ethnicity" (Sociology 106). This course will cultivate students' understanding of racial, ethnic, class, national, gender, and sexual identities. We will engage in a critical examination of social inequalities related to these identities to develop an understanding of: how social and historical processes shape our understanding of these identities, and how social inequalities have been maintained within dominant institutions, including families, schools, workplaces, and the media.
