New 1-Credit Elective - WSGS 101 Why Pronouns Matter
by Green & Gold News |
A smart degree plan at 香港六合彩资料 is to get your GERs done and follow along with the progression
of your major classes, but most students will also need to complete a considerable
amount of electives in order to finish their degree. This course will fit into that
need! A 1-credit course also sometimes helps students get over minimum credit requirements,
such as needing 9-credits to live in on-campus housing or being full-time at 12-credits
to receive full financial aid opportunities.
In WSGS 101, "Why Pronouns Matter" the focus of the curriculum will be on exploring
and deepening our understandings of why respectful language matters, which will indeed
include discussions of pronoun use, but that is the mere surface level of where we
endeavor to go. Through this focal point on identity exploration, we'll come to better
understand our own positionality in the cycle of oppression, and come away with tangible
ways we all can be more present in the cultivation of collective liberation. While
this course is only 1-credit, it will be a substantial contribution to your personal
and professional development. You'll gain knowledge and skills that employers need
on their teams, but you'll also feel better at connecting with others and more grounded
in your own truths.
