Representing the American Ethnic ExperienceCluster Description: This cluster offers the experience of ethnic diversity by exploring literary and historical traditions of ethnicity and race development in the United States. An important element in understanding the American experience and individual family histories begins with theexploration of the impact of immigrant culture (migration) on North American Society. Because of the preeminence ofthe fallacious concept of “race” in the US, special attentionwill be paid to the emergence of race as a scientific categoryand a political toll for the establishment and maintenance ofthe status quo – one marked by economic inequality and classantagonism. Using a literary, historical backdrop, the disrup-tions and displacements of immigration and the problematicstruggle to achieve the “American dream” of upward socialmobility will be explored. This cluster will analyze the con-structions of ethnic identity that result from conflicting (andoften competing) cultural paradigms of American life andunderscore the ways in which ethnic Americans both contestthe central paradigms that have dominated society and alsoexpand notions of American identity.

ENG 276-80 ETHNICITY IN US LITERATUREA study of the construction and representation of ethnicheritages, affiliations, differences, and commonalities innarratives, poetry, and plays by American writers from avariety of ethnic backgrounds, writing in English and adapt-ing and revising established literary practices. Meets generalacademic requirement L, HU, CL.

SOC 225-80 AMERICAN ETHNIC DIVERSITYThis course is designed to provide a general overview of thefield of the sociology of race and ethnic relations with a par-ticular emphasis on the historical situations and experiencesof various immigrant and minority groups in American soci-ety. We will first examine the socio-political and economichistory of a variety of minority and immigrant groups. Asubstantial amount of course material will then focus onanalyzing the varying structural conditions and institutionalbarriers that affect the different strategies by which variousminority and immigrant groups have sought entry and suc-cess in dominant society. Finally, throughout the coursematerial discussions will be devoted to examining specificinstitutions and the various ways in which constructions ofracial and ethnic categories and hierarchies are produced andreproduced in the United States. Meets general academicrequirement D and effective Fall 2013 DE, CL.

Creativity: Theory and Practical ApplicationCluster Description: The goals of this cluster are to explorehow psychologists define, quantify, and manipulate creativ-ity, and to experience creativity in the arts. In the psychologycourse students will experiment with and critique differentmeasures of creativity and learn about factors that arethought to influence creativity. In the art course studentswill not only look at the work of famous photographers, butwill also do photographic assignments that both allow themto explore their own creativity and to test out psychologicaltheories of creativity.

ARS 284-00 SPECIAL TOPIC: THE ART OF SEEINGThis course combines cognitive psychology with practical photographic techniques to investigate and understand how creative people see. Emphasis is placed on understandinghow creativity occurs and being able to recognize it and useit in our everyday lives. This course is taught by a workingphotographer with professional experience in photojournalism,fashion, and fine art photography. Students will investigatecreativity by studying iconic photographs and completingassignments (both written and photographic) that demon-strates their own understanding of creative principles. The student must provide a digital camera. (DSLR, compactdigital, or smartphone with a camera is acceptable.) Meetsgeneral academic requirement AR, CL.

PSY 180-00 PSYCHOLOGY OF CREATIVITYIn this course students will compare and critique the multi-ple ways that psychologists define and measure creativity.Students will read a brief textbook that reviews the issuesthat psychologists study about creativity. Students will read journal articles that provide evidence for the roles ofpersonality, intelligence, environment, mental illness, andother factors thought to influence creativity. Based on thereadings students will design experiments to test theirhypotheses about creativity. These experiments will be carried out in the art class and the students will assess thedegree to which the experimental conditions influenced creativity. Additionally students will apply the theories theyhave learned to analyze a brief biography of a famous photographer and what factors may have influenced the photographer’s creativity. Meets general academicrequirement SL, CL.

Cluster CoursesMuhlenberg College is committed to the interdisciplinary exploration and integration of ideas throughout the four years ofundergraduate education.

Cluster Courses (CL) are two directly linked courses with different prefixes. Students must enroll in two courses with different prefixes that form an integrated cluster. The courses will focus on a shared area of interest, theme, or question,examining it from the perspective of each discipline.

Online Course DescriptionsMuhlenberg faculty are exploring new modes of teaching and learning online, building on a longstanding interest in the pos-sibilities of technology to enhance liberal arts learning. The courses offered online this summer vary – some are entirelyonline, while others require a small number of on-campus meetings – but students in all courses will find similarities withtheir traditional on-campus courses: a focus on academic rigor and critical thinking, an emphasis on interactive and learner-centered approaches, and intensive interaction between faculty and students.

Students enrolling in online courses at Muhlenberg should expect to dedicate as much time to studying, reading, preparing forclass and engaging with peers and the instructor as they would for a traditional course. The courses provide a considerabledegree of flexibility but are not entirely self-paced. The courses follow the summer session schedule, starting and endingwithin the regular summer sessions, and have weekly assignments and deadlines throughout the session. Learning in anonline and blended environment is well suited for students who are comfortable using technologies and interested in learninga range of new digital tools for communication and collaboration, who manage their time well, and have a strong sense ofself-direction and responsibility for engaging in the online learning experience.
