Intro to Psychological Science

We will discuss the way that psychology is interdisciplinary, with topics that link to several other fields in the natural, cognitive, and social sciences, and in the humanities and arts.
Nazi Germany
(Offered as HIST 234 [EU] and EUST 234.) In the 1920s, Germany was celebrated throughout Europe and North America as a model of democratic political reform, artistic experimentation, economic prosperity, and cultural diversity. Yet by 1933, millions of Germans gave their political support and allegiance to a movement that called for the destruction of democracy, an attack on Jews, Communists, gay men, and lesbians, and deemed "asocial" anyone who did not conform to narrowly prescribed social, political, and sexual standards.
