LC 230 - Learning Community: Through the Looking Glass

Three Credits
Fall 2017

Using Cooley’s theory of the Looking Glass Self, this LC explores how prevailing societal views about the poor and disadvantaged are reflected perspectives on social welfare and social policy. Students learn from one another as they engage in roundtable discussions on issues such as welfare reform, corporate welfare, universal health care, foster care legislation, and educational vouchers. Additionally, students participate in experiential learning activities, which bring greater relevancy to the policy issues being discussed.

Corequisite(s): Students must also take    and   as part of this Learning Community.
