Minor in Multicultural Society
The Multicultural Society Minor is designed to provide students with a critical understanding of historical and contemporary issues, addressing the intersections of race and ethnicity with class, gender, and other forms of difference and hierarchy across various social groups. The MSM contributes to the decompartmentalization of knowledge about specific social groups, recognizing the interconnectedness of historical experiences in regional, transnational, transborder, and global contexts, as well as the social, political and economic implications of multicultural processes.
