CREA 1010

This course will provide a general, multidisciplinary introduction into the intersection of social and physical factors that affect human health and wellbeing. Students will explore how to reason in conditions of uncertainty, to examine arguments, to embrace contingencies, and to explore the historical roots by which public trust and systems of authority - institutional, governmental, and societal - have been established. Students will engage in the analysis of ethics, history, rhetoric, folklore, and the power of storytelling as they connect to self-expression and the nature of health.
