    Description
    Dance Appreciation is a survey course that examines dance as a primary mode of human expression and communication with a focus on dance in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries CE. Through viewing live and recorded performances, discussions, and engaging in assigned readings, the student will place dance in a variety of cultural, artistic and historical contexts and examine issues of race, gender, and politics. This course fulfills a humanities requirement and may be of interest to students who want to examine the performing arts or cross-cultural studies. (CSU/UC) (AA/AS-3, CSU-C1, IGETC-3A, Cal-GETC-3A)
