    Description
    Students examine the social significance of gender in contemporary US society and analyze the social construction of gender ideology and how people's experiences are affected by social institutions such as work, education, the family, and the criminal justice system. People's differential experiences are analyzed within the context of race, class, and sexual orientation. Students learn how the experiences of people are created through social institutions and can, therefore, be transformed through social and institutional change.
