The list is designed to help Juniors and Seniors in A&S work toward the 45 upper-division credit hours (at least 30 of which must be in A&S) that are required for graduation.

Fall 2026 Featured Classes

English

ENGL 1270-581: Introduction to American Literature by Women: Rural Women's Voices
Continuing Education Online 13-Week Session
Asynchronous online course that explores novels and short stories by American women writers (and one Canadian) whose works are rooted in rural life. Reading authors including Alice Munro, Flannery O’Connor, Jane Smiley, and Marilynne Robinson, students will examine how literature illuminates questions of gender, power, religion, family, labor, food, and community. Together, we will ask what is at stake in being a woman—and, more specifically, a rural woman—both in the historical moments of these texts and in our own.
