UNVS 96E - Leadership and Creating Change

3 unit(s)
This course will introduce students to conceptual and theoretical dimensions of leading, following, and creating social change. We will be particularly interested in connecting the social construction of identities with the idea of leadership as a form of social influence. This will include an examination of issues of power, privilege, marginalization, inclusion, and social and group behavior. Students will explore literature, case examples and applications in the form of community service-learning to build their understanding of, and capacity for serving as ethical and effective community leaders, advocates and allies.
