CORE 457 - Families and Society Prerequisites: Core seminar, required for graduation CORE 101 through CORE 105 and at least sixth semester standing This course serves as a capstone to the Core Curriculum at Roger Williams University. The Core Curriculum centers on three questions: Who am I? What can I know? Based on what I know, how should I act? Families often define who we are, what we know, and how we think we should act. This course explores the reciprocal influences of families on society and of society on the family. We explore the meaning of family across time and culture. This will include depictions and discussions of families in the arts, sciences, social sciences, and literature, as well as a consideration of the future of the family for individuals and society.
