LAS 327 - The Accomplishment of an Aim or Purpose by Pablo and Yolanda

3 hours
Most of our popular media outlets send us strong messages that people are successful because of their income, their possessions, their accomplishments or stature in a particular environment or industry. The working world, however, is filled with people whose work gives them high income and stature, but also makes them unhappy. How is this possible? In order to help students arrive at their own visions of success and happiness, this class will examine stories of the “successful” and “unsuccessful” through films, documentaries, guest speakers, classic texts, and contemporary biographies of several figures in the entertainment industry (both well-known and not so well-known). Students will also participate in improvisation exercises and be required to make one presentation.

Prerequisite(s): Junior standing
