GDA-6622 . This course introduces students to the ecological study of crime. Crime varies in time, space, and populations as it reflects neighborhood structures and the routine social interactions that occur in daily life. Concentrations of crime can be found among locations, with antisocial activities like assaults and theft occurring at higher rates because of the demographic make-up of people (e.g., adolescents) or conflicts (e.g., competing gangs), for reasons examined by ecological criminology. We examine variations in socio-demographic structures (age, education ratios, and the concentration of poverty) and the physical environment (housing segregation, density of bars, street lighting) predicts variations between neighborhoods in the level of crime and disorder.

Within the “technosphere”, the organization in which economic processes and activities are conducted by humans, IE uses the evolving tools life cycle assessment (LCA), material flow analysis (MFA), and economic valuation, to explore novel approaches to minimizing waste stocks and flows at both micro and macro levels.

JWST 224 . Judaism and Christianity: Two Religions or One? 3.0
GDA-14419 . The relation between Christianity and Judaism is one of the most misunderstood in the history of thought. Christianity is often considered to be diametrically opposed to Judaism, to be a rejection of the Judaic worldview. Indeed, prominent thinkers in the history of Christianity, such as Martin Luther, have reinforced this position. Yet Christianity was originally a development within Judaism, a sect, so to speak, of Judaism. The earliest Christians were Jewish followers of a Jewish leader and conceived of themselves as faithful Jews. So how did the two religions come to be viewed as opposed? Do elements of Judaism remain as part of the foundation of the new faith of Christianity? Where do the two faiths converge and where do they diverge? This course endeavors to answer these important questions.

PHIL 291 . Judaism and Christianity: Two Religions or One? 3.0
GDA-17604 . The relation between Christianity and Judaism is one of the most misunderstood in the history of thought. Christianity is often considered to be diametrically opposed to Judaism, to be a rejection of the Judaic worldview. Indeed, prominent thinkers in the history of Christianity, such as Martin Luther, have reinforced this position. Yet Christianity was originally a development within Judaism, a sect, so to speak, of Judaism. The earliest Christians were Jewish followers of a Jewish leader and conceived of themselves as faithful Jews. So how did the two religions come to be viewed as opposed? Do elements of Judaism remain as part of the foundation of the new faith of Christianity? Where do the two faiths converge and where do they diverge? This course endeavors to answer these important questions.

PSCI 361 . The Politics of LGBT Movements and Rights 4.0 Credits In many countries, the subject of LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and trans) rights has entered the political discourse with unprecedented speed and suddenness. This course is designed to gain leverage on the processes that explain this rapid global expansion of LGBT rights by surveying an eclectic literature on comparative and transnational LGBT politics. Specially, we will ask: What factors have facilitated the mobilization of LGBT people? How and why have public opinion and laws towards LGBT people changed differently across various countries? To answer these questions, we will take an in-depth empirical look at movements representing LGBT people and their successes/losses—as well as those of their opposition—across time and place, from the late 1800s to present day and across the globe.

ENGL 103 . [Min Grade: D] or ENGL 113 [Min Grade: D] WRIT 320 Publishing Veterans’ Memoirs for the Library of Congress
GDA-22011 . This community-based learning (CBL) course connects Drexel students with local veterans to create texts for the Library of Congress Veterans History Project. By publishing experiences that are not often heard, students will broaden social understanding of the relationship of gender, race, and socioeconomics to war and peace. Students will explore writing as a healing modality, read selected texts, and learn interview techniques while meeting with local veterans. As students learn the veterans’ stories, they will work with the vets to craft narratives that fit Library of Congress guidelines. Male and female veterans will be included and will represent a wide range of military experiences. Students will practice writing, analysis and editing, and create a Library of Congress product to list on their resumes.
