SOC* 200: Queer Sociology

3 Credits
This course provides a critical exploration of identity based understandings of sex, gender, orientation, race and the family. Using assigned readings, experiential activities, and classroom discussion, students will incorporate queer theories as well as personal values to challenge their assumptions and undermine previously unquestioned ‘givens’ about each of these topics. Finally, students will explore the question: what is possible (as individuals, as a society) if we assume no causal relationship among sex, gender, sexuality and desire?
Prerequisites: Eligibility for ENG* 101 .
Offered: Occasionally
