This seminar will explore current and future mobile and wearable technologies. Each week, students will be introduced to a new technology (e.g. smartphones, smartwatches, smart glasses, biosensors, VR headsets, mo-cap suits). Students will learn about the design processes and decisions behind building these technologies, including their use cases, UI/UXs, and data collection.

Introduction to economic issues and the tools that economists use to study those issues: supply and demand, decision making by consumers and firms, market failures, economic output and growth, fiscal and monetary policy in relation to unemployment and inflation, and international economics. Topics include both the study of markets and the need for public policy/government action to address market failures.

This course offers an introduction to the composition of multiple genres and modes of creative writing, which may include poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction, hybrid forms, graphic novels, and digital texts.

This literature course considers the role of the senses in imagining what Black freedom might look like. Can freedom be sensed? How are the senses shaped by politics, economics, and history? By examining a range of African American literary texts before 1900, we will track how Black writers such as Harriet Jacobs, Martin Delany, Charles Chesnutt, and Phillis Wheatley Peters have used literature to explore the intertwinement of political possibility with sensory perception. We will also draw upon a number of texts from the larger abolitionist movement.
