Check out the UB Classics in the Mediterranean Winter 2020 Program!
UB Classics in Italy is a winter session program that will take place around the spectacular and historic Italian cities of Naples and Rome. The program is designed to provide a vivid introduction to the art and archaeology of the ancient Greco-Roman world, while savoring the cultural attractions and achievements of all of the important eras of later Roman and Italian history, from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance to the Fascist era to today.
It’s an incredible opportunity for students to travel to Rome and Naples, earn UB credits, and learn about Italy’s ancient history from an expert in the field! It is perfect for students who still need to fulfill an Arts or Humanities UB Area in their Global Pathway and/or could use CL 391: Art and Archaeology of Rome to fulfill a minor/major program requirement/elective.
The application deadline is October 15, 2019!
ENG 204
Writing about the Environment
Prof. Elizabeth
Mazzolini
TR 8-9:20am
This
course will explore kinds of writing related to environmentalist expression and
action, both activist and professional. Students will develop a rhetorical
understanding of what makes various forms of communication effective, to be
able to produce their own environmentalist communication and respond to that of
others. We will consider film representations of responses to climate change,
and analyze visual culture’s capacity to induce social change. Finally,
students will produce a paper in a genre and on a topic of their own choosing.
Engaging and effective writing is possible for anyone willing and able to
devote work and attention to it; good writing about the environment is the
result of curiosity, research, passion, and logical, critical thinking based on
trustworthy evidence and expertise. These are the principles on which the class
is based.
