UBC school of social work equity and diversity strategic plan: A compilation of case studies 107 Appendix G UC Berkeley, School of Social Welfare, Course Descriptions SW 175ac: The Dialogue of Diversity Learning more about the diversity of American culture often does not increase our ability to understand and get along with one another. Multi-cultural (African American, Asian American, Latino, and European American) educational and workplace environments are fraught with conflicts in which persons find their peers to be disrespectful, aloof, or inappropriately familiar. This course explores assumptions, attitudes, and beliefs and how they influence how we relate to each other and how we conceive of fairness, entitlement, respect, and oppression. Students will learn strategies for engaging in productive intercultural dialogue and conflict resolution. This course satisfies the American Cultures requirement. SW 255: Community Organizing The objective of this course is to provide students with both a conceptual framework and the practical skills for understanding and analyzing the effectiveness of grassroots community organizing efforts and how they relate to social movements and political revolution. Through an exploration of specific community organizing models, and hands-on experience (see below), this class will examine the concepts of self-interest, power, institutional change, community control, and leadership. It will also explore how gender, race, and geography affect organizing philosophy and strategy. Internships of 6-8 hours per week with social action organizations are also offered, but not required, as part of the course through the Cal Corps Public Service Center. The internships are unpaid but interns who make a one-year commitment to their site will receive a small stipend. Transportation stipends may also be available. More information will be provided on the first day of class. (School of Social Welfare, University of California, Berkeley, 2011)
