Introduction to Women's Studies
Through readings, films and class discussion, students
engage in a critical examination of theories of gender and their social
implications. By examining their own experiences as well as the ways in
which they fit or do not fit into the patterns revealed through women's
studies scholarship, students arrive at a better understanding of the
relationship of women and men to the society at large. NOTE: This
course satisfies the Human Behavior and Society requirement in General
