Pre/Co-requisite(s): SOA-110 is recommended.  

Fulfills Core requirement in Social Science. This course provides an overview of the sociological approaches to intersectionality. Intersectionality is a critical framework that allows for the examination of the interconnections between social identities and how people at the intersections of those identities experience the world. For example, women in the context of this course would not be treated as a single homogenous group. Instead, students will learn about how the experiences of women in the world depend on their particular combination of ethnicity, sexual orientation, class and other social locations.
