H108 Home and Away in American History4 credit(s)
This course serves as an anchor for the First Year Experience by welcoming you into the Saint Mary’s University community and providing an opportunity for the development of academic skills in the area/discipline of history. Inquiry into the ways in which Americans have historically, culturally, and artistically understood the idea of home, the experience of leaving home, and the challenges of creating new homes elsewhere will allow you to develop the academic habits and ways of thinking to take forward into any Interdisciplinary Minor of your choice. This course incorporates the common themes of Place, Purpose, and Well-Being by investigating what makes a place “home”, how a sense of “home” helps shape our identities, how to navigate being away from home in the age of instant communication, and how to thrive as part of a new community in a new home.
