    Courses taught at the level of Introduction to College Composition with a grade of "C" or higher or "Pass" or equivalent or appropriate placement based on the college's multiple measures process with eligibility for ENGL C1000 or ENGL C1000E. This course will examine fundamental elements of metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, aesthetics, and political and social philosophy as found in four cultural worldviews: African-American philosophy, Anglo-American philosophy, Latin-American philosophy, and Native-American philosophy. This introductory course is designed to prepare students to analyze philosophical ideas and to critically assess commonality and divergence among these four worldviews on the subjects of human nature, moral community, freedom, truth, society, ultimate reality, economic justice, environment, and beauty.
