HIS 112 - Religion in American Life


This course will offer students an opportunity to further develop their knowledge of the foundational role that religion played in the formation of the United States by providing an interdisciplinary learning community. The class will meet as a seminar during the spring term, include an active on-line course experience, and end with a week long “study away” experience in Washington, D.C. This course is intended to broaden students’ general knowledge base concerning the history and religious influence in America. These goals will be met through personal experiences, which might include, but are not limited to: visits to the White House, the national cathedral, various monuments/memorials (i.e., Lincoln, Washington, Jefferson, etc.), National Museum of American History, African American Civil War memorial Museum and the Smithsonian.

1 semester 3 credits.
