POLS 100 - Civic Well-Being

2.00 credit hours
How do local, state and United States’ governments function, or not? How does citizen participation in the democratic process work? Most importantly, how does civic well-being affect, and is affected by, other measures of well-being (emotional, physical, financial, etc.)? This course introduces students to the ways in which understanding and participating in democratic processes contributes to a deeper connection to oneself and broader communities, while creating a healthier, collective, civil society at the same time. This course does not count toward a major or minor in Political Science.

Cardinal Directions Designation(s): Well-Being.
