Title: Dance and Culture
Course Section Number: FRT-101-07
Department: Freshman Tutorial
Description: "Dance, Dance, Otherwise We Are Lost": Dance and Culture This quote by acclaimed German dancer and choreographer Pina Bausch will frame our freshman tutorial based on the subject of dance. Universally performed but shaped by culture, the movement of the human body is linked to ancient ways of communication and it is still a vehicle for expressing social and cultural information. To dance is to create a human bond with another human being, with a community, and with yourself. This course will explore the role that dance has in our societies and cultures from numerous perspectives in the disciplines of history, psychology, sociology, anthropology, chemistry, physics, and the arts. This course will also serve as an introduction to scholarly work through the practice of written and oral communication that enhances critical thinking, academic research, and the use of campus resources.
