Leading Effectively: Ancient and American Lessons.
Pericles, Alexander the Great, Cicero, Julius Caesar - these
names have lived on as powerful reminders of the debt western
civilization owes to the ancient Greeks and Romans. Despite
shifts in historical approach, we continue to be fascinated by
the "great man" and his impact on the events that have been
crucial to the development of our own culture. Even popular
media appreciate the attraction, with movies like Spartacus,
Alexander, and multiple episodes of the History Channel. One of
our chief sources of knowledge about important men of antiquity
is Plutarch, a Greek writer living in the Roman Empire (A.D.
46-120). He composed a series of biographies known as the
Parallel Lives, in which he pairs a Greek and Roman leader who he
thinks are in some way connected. As Plutarch himself says at the
beginning of his life of Alexander, his main concern is not so
much historical as ethical. He wants to present to readers
models of great-hearted men for imitation in their own lives, and
for this reason Plutarch's biographies have had a great influence
on the personal formation of the educated classes in European and
American history. Ralph Waldo Emerson called Plutarch's Lives "a
bible for heroes", and before him they were read by the American
Founding Fathers, who discovered in these texts many ethical
concepts that were to inform their ideas about the creation of a
free republic. With a work of secondary scholarship, The
Founders and the Classics: Greece, Rome, and the American
Enlightenment by C.J. Richard, we will examine this topic in
detail.

From Zeus to Zika: A History of Epidemic Disease.
Health is a universal concern: everyone gets sick at one time or
another and we all seek healers in order to regain or maintain
our health. In this way, we are much the same as the ancient
Greeks and Romans. Take a journey through time to see what tools
and methods the Greeks and Romans used to treat diseases that
fell upon large populations (epidemic diseases), what these
diseases were, and how the epidemics themselves and medical
approaches to them have changed with new discoveries. Along the
way, we'll study plagues in Athens and Rome, the Black Death of
the Middle Ages, cholera outbreaks in nineteenth-century London,
and contemporary epidemics like AIDS and Zika. Students will
engage the material through discussion, presentations, short
written assignments, and quizzes. This course is required for
the Global Health minor.

EDU-330 = MAS-330:
In this course students study issues related to urban education;
in some years it may culminate with an immersion trip in May
during the week between finals and graduation. For Spring 2019
the course will NOT include an immersion trip but will
incorporate digital pedagogies, speakers, and/or field trips in
our study of contemporary approaches to urban education in the
U.S. In addition to considering the needs and challenges of urban
communities and their schools, we will examine the growing use of
alternative licensure programs such as Teach For America (TFA) to
provide teachers for high-needs urban school districts across the
country.

SPA-277: Ecuador.
In his evaluation of the first Ecuadorian novel,Cumandáby Juan
León Mera, Angel Porras wrote: "The importance of this first
narrative model [in Ecuador] resides not only in its status as
the country's inaugural novel, but also for having synthesized
almost all the themes that constitute the core philosophy of
Hispanic American Romanticism." These themes include history and
politics. But they also include topics like biology, geography,
religion, ethics, and gender. The 2019 Ecuador Program will take
as its main focus the country's late colonial and independence
periods. We'll use the novel as a virtual starting point to
explore all the issues that constitute Hispanic American
Romanticism. And then, after our .5 credit course this coming
spring, we'll travel together to the country of Ecuador and its
capital, Quito, which will become the actual starting point of a
journey to retrace the steps of the novel, from the volcanoes
above Ambato to the upper reaches of the Amazon rainforest and
basin. During the last weeks of May and the first part of June,
students will study Spanish at a University in Ecuador, live with
host families, and then travel to the Amazon with Wabash faculty
and indigenous guides. Prior approval and a completed application
are required for this Immersion trip. The course is open to any
student not yet in his senior year who has completed at least
Spanish 202 prior to the Spring semester. However, preference
will be given to applicants who have completed coursework at the
300 level.
Immersion trip; Regitsration through instructor

SPA-313-02 = GEN-300: The Performance of Self in Contemporary
Spanish Culture.
In this course we will study notions of self-fashioning and
performance in contemporary Spain, and the ways in which social
groups in the margins have historically constructed and
negotiated their identities in response to official narratives of
both, exclusion and appropriation. We will explore some of the
theoretical and cultural debates surrounding race, ethnicity,
gender and linguistic diversity in Spanish discourses of culture
and nationhood; and will examine art, literary texts, films and
performances that directly engage with these issues. All
discussions and assignments will be in Spanish, with some
readings in English. This course counts toward the Spanish major
and minor, the Hispanic Studies major, the Gender Studies minor
and the Language Studies requirement.
Prerequisite: SPAN 301 or 302, or permission from the instructor
