Description
Students will gain practical "hands on" diversity experience in an organizational setting by being placed into a carefully selected city, state, federal or private agency for whom diversity issues related to race and ethnicity, social class and gender are well known to play a significant role. Whenever possible, students' interests and prior academic training will be utilized in determining their placements. Thought provoking diversity readings and websites, in-class discussions and online student interactions also form part of the course.
