Section Title: Humans&Animals: Friends/Food? Section Info: Through a critical engagement with scholarly writings and visits to a local animal shelter and farm, students will address the challenges of sustainability with a unique focus on human relations with non-human animals. Specifically, we will consider the cultural distinctions between animals considered "pets" and those considered "food" animals, both in U.S. and international contexts. Students will combine hands-on experiential learning with scholarly reflection, and will conduct original problem- solving research, which will be presented in a format designed to engage a wider community outside the classroom. Restriction(s): Restricted to students with Freshman or Sophomore class standing.
