Rationale for
Changes or
Exceptions:

THIS COURSE EXPANDS THE DISCIPLINE'S OFFERING IN THE HUMANITIES AREA, AND WILL GIVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO NON-MAJORS IN THE LANGUAGE TO LEARN ABOUT WOMEN WRITERS OF LATIN AMERICA. IT ALSO PROVIDES AN OPTION FOR LATIN AMERICAN AREA STUDIES STUDENTS TO TAKE COURSE WORK IN HISPANIC CULTURE WITHOUT THE NEED FOR ADVANCED LANGUAGE STUDY. SINCE THE DISCUSSIONS WILL BE FRAMED WITHIN FEMINIST LITERARY CRITICISM, THIS CLASS WILL ALSO SERVE STUDENTS IN WOMEN'S STUDIES.
