COMM_ST 294-DL : First-Year Seminar: Your Relationships, Your Self

Description

This course examines aspects of all of our relationships – personal, professional, and everything in between, and how what we say and do are reflections of ourselves. We will explore self-concept and identity; self-disclosure; talking with strangers; authenticity; relationship maintenance; virtual relationships, among other issues to see how we change and evolve into our (hopefully) true selves over our lifetime. This course will include regular, short writing assignments that will culminate in a written final project.

The course is conducted completely online. A technology fee will be added to tuition.
