GS 1030H - GS Honors Seminar III

4 lecture hours 0 lab hours 4 credits
Students study architectural aesthetics and physical/temporal characteristics of the city. They will study art works, including music and theater, to discern patterns in the ways cities are represented in art. They will study architecture and analyze the relationships between form and function. In addition, students may study public art, its role in city life, and the discourse surrounding it. Field trips to study the aesthetics of public spaces will be included. Throughout the quarter, students will create and deliver short presentations regarding their reading and research. At the quarter’s end a poster session event, planned by students and open to the public, will present student work discussing the relationships between a city’s ethos and its aesthetics. Students will also design presentation slides and posters that are both aesthetically appealing and rhetorically effective. (prereq: enrollment in the University Scholars Program)
