ARCHITECTURE IN EAST ASIA

This course explores a diverse range of architecture in China, Japan, and Korea from ancient to contemporary times. We will investigate the major architectural types in East Asia?including cities, temples, palaces, gardens, and houses?as well as individual monuments such as Japan's Himeji Castle and the 'Bird's Nest' Olympic stadium in Beijing. In addition to examining the architectural history of these sites, we will discuss thematic issues related to design, space, landscape, ritual, memory, and modernity.

REHEARSING THE IMPOSSIBLE

Building on the legacy of Alice Childress, Lorraine Hansberry, Adrienne Kennedy, and Ntozake Shange, this course will explore the work of Pearl Cleage, Lynne Nottage, Suzan Lori Parks, Anne D. Smith and other playwrights who from the 1950's to present go about reinventing the narrative of America. We will consider their theatrical/artistic production in the context of black feminism.

CALCULUS II

Applications of the integral, dynamical systems, infinite series, and approximation of functions. Situations in science and social sciences in which calculus naturally arises are emphasized. Students may not receive credit for both 114 and 112 Prerequisite: MTH 111 or the equivalent.

BIOGEOCHMCL CYCLNG/AVERY BROOK

Same as BIO 180y. This is an interdisciplinary research immersion course investigating biogeochemical cycling in the Avery Brook watershed with a particular focus on mercury ? its deposition on and movement through the watershed, its methylation by the microbial communities in watershed beaver ponds and its bioaccumulation. The questions asked and techniques applied will span the disciplines of biological science, geoscience, chemistry and environmental science.

BIOGEOCHMCL CYCLNG/AVERY BROOK

The questions asked and techniques applied will span the disciplines of biological science, geoscience, chemistry and environmental science.

CALCULUS III

Theory and applications of limits, derivatives, and integrals of functions of one, two and three variables. Curves in two and three dimensional space, vector functions, double and triple integrals, polar, cylindrical, spherical coordinates. Path integration and Green's Theorem. Prerequisites: MTH 112 or MTH 114. It is suggested that MTH 211 be taken before or concurrently with MTH 212.
