This advanced, upper-level special topics seminar offers an interdisciplinary approach to sexuality in light of a religious belief, legal code, medical construction, social movement, or cultural representation, and recognizes these as historically variable and culturally specific.

Intended audience: Upper-level Women's Studies students.

Course Requirements: Assignments vary depending on instructor, but would typically include two 10-page papers, a class presentation, and a final exam. Additional work will be assigned to graduate students.
