Students are required to take an approved Liberal Studies Program course that addresses some dimension of multiculturalism in the context of the United States. Multiculturalism includes issues and topics such as ethnicity, race, class, gender, language, religion, and sexual orientation. These courses generally include the examination of the history of multiculturalism and the experiences and perspectives of different cultural groups. They enable students to develop a critical perspective about the meaning of multiculturalism and provide an understanding of the historical and/or contemporary manifestations of inequality. They also examine the contributions of different cultural groups to the ongoing development of the American experience and American society and culture. Courses are identified in the schedule as ISP 200.
