Students will explore the social institution of family, its variations, structures, and functions within the United States. Students will examine how political, historic, economic, and social conditions have had an impact on the evolution of the family as a unit as well as on its internal dynamics. As the family, however it is defined, connects private life with the public world, students might also examine this social institution in the contexts of public policy, workplace, education, and/or other social institutions. Students will also examine "the family" within the contexts of race, class, gender, and evolving family structures. Prerequisites: Exploring Society (introduction to sociology) or comparable prior learning..
