FYS 1206 - Rebels in Early America

Credits: 4
This course examines rebellion and dissent in early America, with particular attention to two important episodes: 1) the trial of Anne Hutchinson by New England Puritans for her radical views on women and salvation; 2) the coming of the American Revolution to the streets of New York City. Rather than merely investigating events, students will have the opportunity to assume the roles of actual historical figures, mastering the issues of the day, debating from their point of view, and ultimately swaying the course of history. In addition to learning about early America, students will gain writing, research, and rhetorical skills necessary to prosper in college in beyond. 
Offered: Fall only, on demand
McDaniel Plan: First-Year Seminar; Social, Cultural, and Historical Understanding
