GE Minor: Diversity and Social Justice Minor
The social justice minor offers students opportunities to examine issues and theories related to identity, diversity, and equity. Through interdisciplinary coursework and projects, students will deepen their understandings of the disparate ways that people access civil, political, economic, social, cultural, and environmental rights and opportunities and the ways that social structures impact equitable distribution.
