Autumn 2025
This class provides an introduction to the modern university and an exploration of the relationship between knowledge and power. Using the lens of visual and written contributions from German speaking lands, we will examine how they speak to contemporary issues such as race, gender and climate change. Readings will include thinkers whose marginalized status have challenged and produced alternatives to the dominant culture.
You will learn about the foundations of the modern university, why you are studying here, and what you can get out of your college experience.
