An Inclusive Litany

5/24/93

Students who attend summer school classes at the University of California at Santa Cruz can choose classes from the "History of Consciousness" division such as "Perspectives on Mixed Race," "The Lesbian Novel," and "Feminism and Environmentalism," which puts an "emphasis on feminist and multicultural discourses of ecology, environmentalism, and 'technoscience' developed in feminist and antiracist social movements worldwide." Another course, "Masculinity in America," provides insight into "representations of masculinity and diverse 'men's movements' in American popular and political culture." If the academic content of these courses seems too daunting, students can attend courses like "Narrative Evaluation System," which is "designed to encourage students to pursue learning for its own sake, not simply to achieve grades." If that is too much, students can also get credit for "Field Studies: The Santa Cruz Mountains."
