ART 207 — Women and Media
"Women and Media" explores and analyzes current and historical female representation in media; and uses feminist, gender, and queer theory, criticism, and history to understand how popular culture shapes identity and representation of the female gender. The intersection of race, social class, ethnicity, religion, disability, sub-cultures, and sexual orientation will be analyzed, along with the social and political movements that inform and assist the construction of these images in a global context. This course is not open to students who are currently enrolled in or completed WS 207 or WGS 207 .
