WS 400 Ireland Trip

The title of this course is "Feminist Theory, Practice, and Popular Culture in Ireland." We will be exploring the sites of Dublin, County Cork, and Galway. The idea is to investigate popular culture in Ireland and compare our findings with popular culture in our own country -- the U.S. Please, keep up with our journey and enjoy!

Just a day in Dublin!

If you read down you will see what we did today from the students perspectives. I am really humbled as an instructor teaching in another country. I feel a little over-whelmed on the one hand, yet so charged by what I have learned as a new student (myself) of the world. Doing such in-depth "research" on the "streets" makes me wonder how much I really know about my own country and culture. Do I "really" know who or what I am as an American? Some of the young folks we have met here know more about us than we know about ourselves.

More later...
