The Capitalists
This exposé will be concerned with the sustainability of contemporary Public/Private relations. We will begin in the particular Athenian marketplace —specifically, the classic city’s off-campus student housing market – and we will find ourselves forced to grasp for a larger context. We will explain how the government relates to the private sector - on local, state, and federal levels.
Diversity and Inclusion at UGA: Stories of Campus Life
Social Policy Storytelling (LACS/SOCI 4066/6055) is an experiential, multidisciplinary course in which students learn how to research and communicate policy-relevant stories while working on a ‘real-world’ project. In Spring 2018 the class has partnered with the Office of Institutional Diversity (OID) of the University of Georgia.
The OID is invested in understanding how students of different socioeconomic backgrounds (as well as gender, race, or ethnic groups etc.) navigate and experience life at UGA given the University’s unique campus culture and institutional history.
The class project, “Diversity and Inclusion at UGA: Stories of Campus Life”, is intended to be complement to the ongoing efforts of the OID by focusing on the lived experience of UGA students.
Students enrolled in this course developed and carried out a series of storytelling projects that captured, among other things, how first-generation students define success for themselves, understand and navigate various campus resources and how diverse sets of students make campus spaces their own.
We hope that these projects help the OID and other stakeholders understand how students experience campus life. We believe that understanding these experiences has the possibility to shape future research, lead to innovations in institutional policy and programing, and make UGA more diverse and inclusive.

The Revolutions of 1989
Few people anticipated the Revolutions of 1989, so at its core your task is to simply narrate the sequence of events that led to this surprising and dramatic outcome in one of the four European countries we have chosen for this exhibit. Historians oftem say that the revolutions of 1989 took the form of an international chain reaction, and you may want to factor international relations and influences into your story.
