Using Washington D.C. and the surrounding area as a learning lab, students will explore the connections between gender, race and history. Through a series of visits to historical and contemporary locations--including the National Museum of African American History and Culture, Mount Vernon, Monticello, and other locations--along with conducting research of oral histories at the Library of Congress, students will explore the intersections of patriarchy, racism, and nationalism via the legacies of slavery and the Civil Rights movement.
Global and intercultural education is one of the primary focal points of the academic program at Pacific Lutheran University.
Committed to educate for a just, healthy, sustainable, and peaceful world, PLU weaves global education through almost every aspect of a student's study. World events shape our lives, and PLU's curriculum reflects that reality. As a result, students will graduate well prepared for graduate study or a career with a global focus.
PLU's partnership with Earth Deeds allows us to go further in these commitments and enable students to measure and acknowledge the unavoidable carbon footprints from their study away experience and help support a meaningful sustainability project.
