How would you like to take a class about Star Trek? What about movies in journalism? Or social justice?
Those are the themes of three one-hour elective classes that will be taught in the residential colleges during the second-half semester. These courses are listed as IDC 199 in MyGate.
Dr. Debbie Owens will teach “Let’s Talk about Social Justice and ‘Small Great Things’ that Matter” with Dr. Dana Todd of the nursing department.

The course will meet from 4-5:50 p.m. March 9-May 5 in Hart College.
Dr. Melony Shemberger will teach “The Hollywood Treatment: Journalism in American Film and Television.” The class will meet in Franklin College, and students will enjoy movie snacks each week. The course will meet from 3:30-5:20 p.m. March 9-May 5.
