WMST 370 - Communication and Social Identity

This course increases students’ awareness and understanding of the nature of communication in intergroup contexts, when social identities-such as race, gender, age, ethnicity, socioeconomic class, disability, sexuality, religion, and nationality-rather than personal identities guide communication behaviors. Environmental, situational, and psychological factors that influence the intergroup behaviors of individual communicators are also examined.
