🚨Class Alert🚨
MAS 566: Decolonial Theory with Dr. Damián Baca

What happens to Rhetoric once we refuse the racially coded, pedagogically violent "From-Aristotle-to-the-Present" mythology still dominating graduate programs? What becomes of Composition when alphabetic script and White

MAS/GWS 485/585: Mexicana/Chicana Women's History with Dr. Michelle Tellez

This class will also highlight contemporary issues related to Mexicana and Chicana empowerment and will utilize an interdisciplinary lens to locate "ordinary" Chicanas' self-determination, knowledges, emotional, spiritual and historical ties with place. We will also explore the growth of public and digital history projects in Mexican American women's history.
