Welcome to the Ethnic Studies program
Ethnic Studies is the interdisciplinary study of the major historical and contemporary political, economic, and social events that have shaped the experiences of ethnic and racial groups in the United States. The goals of the minor are to enable students to understand historical and contemporary events as they relate to social inequality; explore how race, class and gender inequality have fostered divisions in the U.S.; use critical thinking to explore these issues; enhance the oral and written expression of critical ideas; and to prepare students to be productive citizens in a diverse society.
