Race and Sex in Contemporary U.S. Text (ENGL/WMGS 310) Syllabus
How do race and gender shape the way we engage our world and local communities? As we seek answers for this question, we will study Native American, U.S. Latinx, African American, and Asian American texts in contemporary U.S. culture (1960s-present). We will discuss and analyze short stories, novels, poems, films, music videos, and even comic books to explore how stories have served as a powerful forum for representing race and gender. To consider how these categories and their intersections shape our world, we will perform service with one community partner. Our goal in doing so is to learn from both our experiences and our service in a mutually beneficial relationship. Together, these activities – reading, discussion, writing, and serving – will help us better understand how issues surrounding race and gender call us to turn our analytical skills from close-reading texts toward an active, engaged dialogue with our community. This 4-credit course has no prerequisites and fulfills a requirement for the English Education major/minor and an elective for the English major and WMGS minor. This course meets in person for three, 60-minute periods. In addition, this course carries the expectation that students will work on course-related activities (reading, writing, studying, service, completing assignments, etc.) for approximately three hours outside of class for every class period, totaling an average of 12 hours per week in and outside of the face-to-face/virtual clas

Rebecca Jacques, Senior Art Exhibition
This body of work was created for the Senior Art Capstone and exhibited in the Bush Art Center galleries in 2021. It encompasses four digital illustrations based on the elements of nature.
I’ve created a series of creatures surrounded by a correlating landscape. Each piece is based on mythology and has ties to the real world. For this series, in particular, I explored a myth that can be found across multiple cultures is that the world was formed out of four main elements; Earth, Fire, Water, and Air. Things are kept natural through the color palette and scenes, but turn surreal with the addition of unordinary creatures and pops of vibrant color. In addition, I enjoy adding fine detail into my pieces which can be found throughout the series.
A tall deer-like creature towers over a grove of trees, a section of the expansive forest carried on its back. Dark clouds loom in the sky above as leaves circle on the breeze. That is, the element of Earth stands tall and serene for while there is gloom those turbulent clouds bring life. I chose these elements because they hold so much opportunity for stories to be wielded. When telling this story through art, we can deepen the narrative through detail and color. The palette uses very natural shades of blues, greens, and browns but includes a bright purple for contrast. Upon looking closer, you can see the texture of leaves, grass, and the furriness of the creature.https://digitalcommons.snc.edu/artportfolios/1065/thumbnail.jp
Domain of One’s Own Research
Domain of One’s Own is an initiative started at the University of Mary Washington to empower students, faculty, and staff by giving them a piece of the internet. Implemented at St. Norbert through Knight Domains, members of the SNC community are given their own domain (website) to customize using cPanel applications such as WordPress. The objective of the Domain of One’s Own research fellow was to develop a way to showcase the impact of Knight Domains by gathering examples from the SNC community.https://digitalcommons.snc.edu/collaborative_presentations/1025/thumbnail.jp
