DC: Cultural Capitol
Washington DC was laid out to
symbolize the United States.
But what does it mean to live in the middle of that symbolism? How do you
navigate between the private city of distinctive and historic neighborhoods, on
the one hand, and the public city of grand monuments and world class museums on
the other? In this one-credit class, students will learn to answer these
questions by visiting a different neighborhood, museum, or historic site each
week.
In order to take this class, students must register for DC:
Cultural Capitol (American Studies 55).
·
There will be 10
sessions; students must attend at least 5 in order to receive one credit for
the course
·
Class meetings
will be offered between June 1 and Aug 7 on Saturday afternoons and some
weekday evenings
·
Each class will
meet at a different location.
·
No reading will
be assigned, but students will be required to work together to complete a brief
assignment at each venue they visit
·
Register through
July 1

P/NP only
This is a great way to experience Washington DC
and a great way to share that experience with others. Students who register for
this course will have access to all the resources of George Washington
University.
Learn to live in Washington
DC and learn to love it!
