DIVERSITY AND WELLNESS ISSUES IN HIGHER EDUCATION

Catalog description

This course is an exploration of holistic wellness and of power, privilege, social identities, social justice theories and multicultural issues and practices within the context of higher education. We begin by offering foundational definitions of terminology used throughout the course and delve into understanding systems of oppression, privilege, power, and activism through a holistic wellness lens. We then explore and discuss specific social identities, returning again to think about identity through a social justice lens.
