Students who enroll in this topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two.Once upon a time, in lands all over the world, fairy tales were passed on through generations, carried over continents by the voices of storytellers. This semester we will be re-learning how to read fairy tales, working to uncover the layers of meaning hidden to us by our modern eyes too readily satisfied by the obvious morals of Disney movies; will ask why fairy tales are important, why their shelf lives are so long; will investigate how the tales themselves have shape-shifted from the oral into text and media and how this affects their worth; all while asking ourselves "what is a fairy tale"? Our second semester will take a giant leap from the fantasy of fairy tale into the genres of "reality": creative non-fiction and memoir. This course is the first-semester offering of the year-long First-Year Seminar. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ FYS 101 55 4326 First-Year Seminar Lecture 3 Apocalyptic Literature Class Dates: 08/28/2013 - 12/21/2013 Bldg: Jordan Hall Room: 242 Days: MW Time: 3:50pm - 5:05pm Instructor: Hanna,James Allan Class Enrl Cap: 18 Class Enrl Tot: 18 Class Wait Cap: 0 Class Wait Tot: 0 Class Min Enrl: 0 Apocalyptic Literature: From Beginning to The EndIn this course we will work with stories about the end of the world from a variety of cultures.

Though the profound rhythm and rhyme of rap are often obscured by crassness and controversy, the loaded literary wordplay of artists like Common and Mos Def rewards a sophisticated listener. In this course, we will train our ears to hear rap¿s connection to African-American oral culture and the tradition of Western poetry, as well as the instrumental lineage that links hip hop to jazz, blues, funk, and soul music. We¿ll examine how MCs past and present relate to their poetic forefathers and how the inclusive multicultural history of rap reflects the reality of a nation. This is a two-semester course. Students who enroll in this topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ FYS 101 58 4607 First-Year Seminar Lecture 3 Field to Fork: How What We Eat Class Dates: 08/28/2013 - 12/21/2013 Bldg: Jordan Hall Room: 307 Days: TuTh Time: 3:50pm - 5:05pm Instructor: Bungard,Kara Ann Class Enrl Cap: 18 Class Enrl Tot: 18 Class Wait Cap: 0 Class Wait Tot: 0 Class Min Enrl: 0 Field to Fork: How What We Eat Shapes Our Nation Food, although one of our most basic needs, is often ignored as a powerful shaper of our physical,
cultural, and biological landscape. Looking at authors such as Michael Pollen, M.F.K. Fisher, Novella Carpenter, as well as a variety of text and multi-media sources, we will examine how food, and the prerequisite farming, impacts our relationships with our communities, economy, and landscape. In semester one, we will look at our relationships with food and the economy and in the second semester we will explore our food choices in relationship to farming and ecology. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
