NYC 101-105 New York City Seminars (DS1-DS5)

Over the past 400 years, New York City is a place that has attracted artists, intellectuals, opportunists, and dreamers. In this course, students will consider why New York continues to captivate the public imagination through disciplinary-specific study in one of the following areas: 1) creative expression, 2) literature and language, 3) natural science and math, 4) psychology, philosophy & religious studies, or 5) social science, business and history. Through course readings, activities, excursions, writings and discussions, students will explore the complex relationships between New York City and its citizens as experienced and mediated in physical and imaginary domains.
