Description

AMCULT 305 is an upper-level three-credit course on Asian/Pacific Islander American and Arab/Muslim American social activism and related political and legal issues. The course is based on direct student engagement with community organizations and/or agencies. A single meeting takes place each week to cover the fundamentals of the operation of a community agency. The class works in conjunction with independent placements and assignments in relevant internships in those community organizations and/or agencies.

Students will gain an understanding of the operational detail of an Asian/Pacific Islander American or Arab/Muslim American community organization. Students will learn about the importance of grassroots service organizations as they impact the community. Students will develop collaboration skills working with staff and clients in the field. Students will improve their communication skills through class discussion, field reports, and presentations.
