Description

This collaborative, six-credit service-learning course series (taken with RLST-250) explores the human condition from the perspectives of Sociology and Religious Studies. Students will examine lived experiences of inequality, including structural forces related to race, socioeconomic class, and gender. This course requires a significant out-of-classroom time commitment, where students regularly volunteer with a community partner organization working toward issues of social justice. Students will integrate their community service-learning experiences with academic course topics. Must also register for RLST 250.
