HIST 340: History of Women in the U.S., 1877-Present
(1 Unit)
Prerequisite: Previous course work in women’s studies or history.
Does some shared history link American Indian girls sent to BIA boarding schools at the turn of the century with the immigrant girls who labored for the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory? How is “women’s” history different? What difference does women’s history make to U.S. history? This course considers such questions by examining the situations of women in the U.S. from 1877 forward. It introduces students to the theories and methods of women’s history that scholars have developed over the last quarter century. Central to this course is the recognition that women’s experiences are not simple parallels to men’s, and involve differences among women such as those based on sexuality, class, race and regional factors.

(1 Unit)
Explores the basic issues of law’s relationship to contemporary society. Topics include the nature as well as historical and social functions of law; the culture and role of major legal actors in the legal system (e.g., lawyers, judges, juries, police, technology); the tension between ideals and realities in law; and the role of law in addressing contemporary social problems. Fosters analytical and critical skills. Serves as the gateway class to the concentration in law, justice, and society; however, registration is open to all interested students. Rose.
