UNIV 222 Living in a Changing World: Culture, Values, and Perspectives (4) This course examines extraordinary changes taking place in the United States and across the globe. We will explore significant transformations that have occurred throughout society over the past century, from technology, information, and business to literature, the arts, and education. In addition to studying the effects of these changes on the ways that people think, work, and interact, we will consider both the significant challenges and amazing opportunities that these new developments create for everyone. This course, taught by scholars from all SSU Schools, is intended to orient new transfer students, as well as continuing students, to the range of academic resources available at Sonoma State University. This course satisfies GE Area C2 (Literature, Philosophies, and Values)
The lecture series explores wide-ranging issues of environmental sustainability through specific issues in the Russian River watershed. Funded by a grant from the National Science Foundation, this lecture series, open to the public, is part of a two-semester course sequence for first-time freshmen, immersing them in real-world issues of environmental sustainability.
