Credits: 3
Grad Meth: Reg, P-F
GenEd: DSSP
Restricted to first semester first year students in the College of Arts and Humanities.

Artists explore and document public health disparities by collectively creating a multiverse of expression. Public health data presents a technical framework in presenting the challenges faced by communities. Artist s, over the ages, have expanded this narrow lens by responding tohealth inequities through advocacy and giving voice to the experiencesof marginalized communities. Engaging with literature, film, music and visual art, students will explore the essentiality of the humanities in creating a broader understanding of health disparities.
