FYS 109M CONCEPTIONS OF HOME AND PLACE

We often find ourselves navigating our way through life based, in part, on how we have come to define the word, “home,” and how we understand places to have meaning. In this course, we will take time to consider varied ways in which we might think about conceptions of home and place. We will read books where home and place are broad central themes, and these books will serve as starting points for larger discussions, group work, and writing assignments.
