Artists, engineers, scientists, and other visionaries have always used drawing as a language of thought. Drawing can document the present or envision the future, it can be a tool for problem solving, a mode of expression, and an experimental art form. In this course, we will dig deeply into visual perception and markmaking through observational drawing, further training our eyes and hands. We will explore experimental practices, including mapping, diagramming, emergent forms, and three-dimensional "expanded field" drawings.

Using Java. Solving problems with computers is accomplished by writing programs that operate on data to produce a desired result. The way data is organized and presented to the program can significantly affect its efficiency and simplicity and can sometimes determine whether or not a program can be written to solve the problem at all. This course presents ways of organizing data into 'data structures' and analyzes how structuring the data can improve program performance.This course is programming intensive.

Covers all aspects of running, including gear, training, and running techniques. All levels of runners welcome.

Covers basic weight-training techniques and theory. Instructs students in the use of weight machines and a variety of other modalities. Allows students to develop individualized weight-training programs.

The subject of this course is the book, from its invention in the late antique era to the advent of printing in the fifteenth century, in Europe and Western Asia. We will study books made for devotion, instruction, entertainment, and pleasure, from the earliest accounts of Christ's life, to jewel-encrusted books painted with gold for emperors, to student-copied textbooks of the oldest universities, to vernacular literature, legends, and histories.

What does it mean to be (in?) a body? Who counts as whole, broken or food? How do discipline, punishment, use, reproduction, and illness come into play? What are agency, animacy, knowledge, consciousness in relation to embodiment? Western rationality has produced and disciplined a coherent, bounded, defended, racialized, and gendered bodily Self through medicine, psychiatry, nutrition, education, sexology, thanatology, obstetrics, and other disciplines.

The rise of digital fabrication processes has blurred the traditional division of labor enabling architects and designers not only to draw but to also fabricate projects, often using the very same programs. Following the rise in CAD/CAM has been a burgeoning Maker movement as more and more individuals have rediscovered the joys (and sometimes frustrations) of realizing projects within a collaborative environment.

This course is a first year seminar on the principles and practices of restorative justice. Restorative justice is a movement that seeks to reimagine justice by building on indigenous theories and practices of human community. Students examine principal restorative justice models and programs for how they understand and respond to harm, especially as they reflect the accountability of key stakeholders (victims, offenders, communities and justice systems).

The course will investigate the relationship between art, community, and power. Drawing on a wide range of political theory and literature, this writing-intensive seminar will focus on the ways that art has both informed and been informed by political and economic life, and the ways in which art can serve as a form of political activism. Although the course will cover a variety of time periods and art forms, we will pay particular attention to such contemporary political issues as racialized oppression, climate change, and feminist activism.
