Gen Ed: SI.
Through this course, and through examining psychological writings that are at least 40 years old, students will come to their own well-reasoned conclusions concerning the definition of “classic psychological writings,” decide why they define “classic” the way they do, discover why certain writings have become classics, and see if there is anything that some or all classic psychological writings have in common that would help explain their remarkable staying power within psychology. Through addressing those issues, students will come to see for themselves what are the core values and fundamental issues that have been important within psychology for decades, and remain salient contemporarily. A Gen Ed Freshman Speaking course required. Fall.

Prerequisite(s): PSYC 300.
