Humanities | College of Arts and Sciences | UG
Leadership cannot take place in a vacuum. It arises in cultural, political, and social contexts, bearing the marks of each. In this course we will contextualize the work of citizens and leaders by examining the history of Seattle, its neighborhoods, and the immediate environment of Seattle University in particular. The course Introductionduces students to case studies in this city's history as the means to understand various conceptions of leadership and citizenship. Studies will physically explore their surroundings and learn about the ways that leaders have contributed to or worked against the marginalization of its populations.
