Section Info:
LAS Blockbuster Course Topic: Material Culture - The Design, Culture & Engineering of the Automobile. The automobile has enabled a powerful global network that supports free circulation of goods, maintains family contact, enhances leisure activities, and is a vital component of global economies. But it's also seen as a device that has routinized labor, stunted technological creativity, increased class difference, and degraded the environment. Co-taught by Professors Rayvon Fouche (History) and David Weightman (Art & Design), students will learn how the automobile impacts social and cultural issues, and contemplate and post-automobile future. A student registered in one or more Art & Design course(s) exhibiting this message, may be assessed a $95 facility use fee once each term.
