US History since 1877. ((3 Credits))

Catalog description

Examines the second half of the American experience, beginning with the collapse of Post-Civil War Reconstruction and concluding with contemporary American issues. Surveys social, political, cultural, and diplomatic developments during this period. Deepens the course's historical inquiry with in-depth discussions and more critical written and reading requirements, all of which allow the student a fuller participation in historical debates and the process of "doing" history.
