This course explores theoretical, empirical, and experiential writings concerning race and ethnicity in the United States, as they relate to human behavior from the perspective of the individual in various social contexts. To address the different learning styles of students, a variety of formats, including readings, films, in-class activities and discussions, and out-of-class assignments will be used to investigate the impact of race and ethnicity on various aspects of living. Students will be evaluated on their knowledge of relevant theory and research; however, it is also expected that all students will engage with the course material on a personal level and several exercises and assignments have been developed to facilitate this type of personal engagement.

51387	Lecture	CH	12:30PM -1:45PM	TR	Psychology Building	Hunter, C	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 08/24/09-12/09/09 Section Info: The Experience of Self in Virtual Communities: Community psychology is concerned with the role of social contexts in the health and well-being of individuals and society. Research has shown that social contexts may play important roles in the development of identity, social relationships, and ultimately healthy functioning. In the last decade the cyber communities have become a powerful social context that may have implications for how individuals construct their notions of self and their social identities in cyber and real world contexts. Thus cyber contexts are of interest to community minded psychologists and provide unique opportunities to explore nuances in self and identity construction. This course will review the literature in community psychology, social psychology, and minority psychology to understand the implications of multiple identities in cyber contexts and its relationship to mental health. Assignments will involve weekly readings, class presentations, journaling, and exams. Restriction lifted on Monday, April 27
32683	Lecture	MK	4:00PM -5:15PM	TR	Psychology Building	Kral, M	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 08/24/09-12/09/09 Section Title: Understanding Suicide Section Info: Understanding Suicide: This course will explore the enigma of suicide, covering its many dimensions including the historical, literary, biological, psychological, social, cultural, public health, and personal/subjective. Suicide has been studied from each of these perspectives, and while there is agreement that it is a multidimensional malaise, bringing these dimensions together has been extremely challenging. This course will explore this challenge through lectures and discussions, including small group discussions. PSYC 238 is a REQUIRED prerequisite. PSYC 239 is not required.
