4 credits
Explores the ways our genders-as they intersect with other identities such as race, class, sexual orientation, disability, nationality, and age in a system of power and privilege-are constructed by the communication messages we receive from our cultures. Students further examine how we express our genders to others as communication messages, and how to use communication strategies to interrupt gender inequities. May count towards the Gender, Sexuality, and Women’s Studies program. Prerequisite(s): Sophomore standing or above.
