LAS 230 - Life in Chicago’s Communities

3 hours
Life in Chicago’s Communities will explore the reciprocal and impactful relationship between neighborhoods and individuals. Sophomore level students will begin by reflecting on the influence community had in their development. Students will then engage in an exploration of a Chicago neighborhood or community, and learn about faith and social justice institutions serving its constituents. Through reflections, texts, group activities, and peer presentations, students will examine the guiding questions: How are personal identity and group membership interrelated? What are the causes and effects of inequality among and within groups? What does it mean to live in diverse communities and cultures?
 

Prerequisite(s): Sophomores only.
