Sex, Drugs and Rock and Roll
4-weeks (last 4) | Registration closed 9/10/2025
Exploring the people, events and movements that have shaped our lives from 1900 to the present, we will spend most of our time doing a deep dive into our lived history, exploring its triumphs and challenges through images, speeches and music. We will address industrialization, environmental concerns, medical advances, sexual and gender issues, war and peace, and the economic status of our nation. Class will include lots of music so bring your voices and dancing shoes.
Note: This is a re-do and re-vamp of the course given in Fall 2024 and Spring 2025.
