Social Transformation in Action

Catalog description

Taught by PSR. Under the PSR Stackable Curriculum, every student will engage in experiential learning during the intersession of their first or second year. Students will engage with the principles of community organizing and transformational change within a theological and social justice framework. Course begins with readings, lectures, and discussions. 3-4 Bay Area social justice organizations and movements will present opportunities for onsite work in various topic areas. Once students select a site, they will participate for 24 hours of experiential learning work (over 5.5 days), then re-convene for final discussions, summary, and closing. Students following Stackable Curriculum programs get priority registration; others may participate as space is available. Course meets daily, 1/14/19-1/16/19 and 1/22/19 from 10am-2pm at Holbrook 133. [24 max enrollment]
