COL 20100 Experiments in Cultural Comparison and Criticism

This course addresses some of the same cultural criticism debated by the Honors LUL students in the fall of their freshman year (at a more advanced level), such as cultural trends and attitudes regarding technology, compulsivity, social relations, and the debate over the liberal arts curriculum. U.K. culture and the system of higher education has enough in common with our own for comparison, while significant differences allow for interesting analysis and criticism. The course involves a trip to the U.K. and Ireland.
