First Year Seminar 191HFA19 - FYS- Home and Belonging

This course is designed as a supportive space for first-year students to reflect on and discuss what "home" and belonging means to them. We will together learn about concepts of community, cohabitation, and domesticity in different gendered, ethnic, and cultural contexts. We will think about our lived environments - from the rooms to the university as a whole. The course will consist of reading assignments, discussions, short writing practices, art making, storytelling, meditation, and field trips. We will share experiences and stories, and treat each other as sources of feedback and support.

First year students only - (Freshmen or Sophomore status) First year (Fr or Soph)
