CTSJ 394 Critical Theory and Social Justice Journal of Undergraduate Research Colloquium

Critical Theory and Social Justice Journal of Undergraduate Research (CTSJ) is the leading undergraduate publication in its field, nationally. A primary goal of this course is to develop student's preparedness and capacity to critically evaluate submissions to the CTSJ Journal. To that end, there are two sets of readings. All students are required to read the primary text, J.M. Balkin's Cultural Software. Other readings are assigned to reflect the themes and topics of the submissions under review. In addition, this course affords students the opportunity to work closely with CTSJ''s Lead Faculty Editor to understand the mechanisms of working for and advancing a research publication in the Humanities field, and produce content that is consistent with the goals of CTSJ. May be repeated three times for credit.
