Classes for spring semester

Hi everyone,

Thought I'd share the exciting class schedule I have got going over for Spring!

Public Health 1101
Introduction to Public Health and Health Services (3)
Introduction to aspects of public health and health services, including health services administration and policy, maternal and child health, environmental health, and health promotion


Economics 2180
Survey of International Economics (3)
Basic concepts of international trade and international finance, with emphasis on policy issues.


English 3810
Selected Topics in Literature (3)
Topics announced in the Schedule of Classes; may be repeated for credit provided the topic differs. Topics may include the Bloomsbury group; southern literature; the picaresque; literature of the Holocaust; literature and politics; Freud, Dostoevsky, and Shakespeare. My class is focused on Modernism and the Lost Generation: literature from the 20s including Hemingway, Cather, and more!


Geography 2133
People, Land, and Food (3)
Domestication and dispersal of plants and animals; development of agricultural systems; spatial disparities in world food production, demand, and distribution.


Political Science 2337
Development Politics (3)
An examination of how and why political systems develop the way they do. Why do some countries develop into democracies, while others become authoritarian? How do class conflict, the nature of the elite, and the political culture affect the development of political institutions?



International Affairs
Internship for Credit (1)
I am currently interning at the American Psychological Association. To get a credit towards graduation, I have to work a minimum of 4 hours (I work 12) and write a 10 page paper. Easy!

Any questions? Let me know!
