nothing to do This is designed to familiarize students with women's experiences, as well as with the ways in which society shapes notions of gender. The course will also provide ways to identify and analyze how a society's notions of gender shape the ways in which a society sees and organizes itself. Class members examine the construction of women's social roles and their personal experiences, discussing points of congruence and dissonance. As an interdisciplinary course, reading and discussion material will be drawn from fields such as religion, sociology, psychology, political science, and literature, among others, so students may examine the views, status, and contributions of women.
