    Description
    (Same as SJS-135) LGBTQ+ Studies (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and "Plus." The "plus" represents other sexual and gender identities including pansexual, intersex, non-binary, two-spirit, and more). LGBTQ+ Studies takes an intersectional, interdisciplinary, multicultural approach to examining the historical, political, social and cultural issues that have affected LGBTQ+ people throughout time and globally. This class emphasizes that everyone has a gender and sexuality and in this sense explores the strengths of our differences. Students will study people from a wide variety of cultures, and gain a greater understanding of how matters of sexual orientation and gender identity impact and intersect with issues of class, race, ethnicity, ability, nationality, religion and mental health.
