Perhaps no other region of our country has inspired as many stories, myths, and legends as the American West. But along with the 'cowboys and Indians', the prospectors and outlaws, the western landscapes of the American continent are filled with complexity. The region west of the Mississippi is considered the most culturally and racially diverse of the United States and has been the context for many of our nation's most important issues, such as the struggle for indigenous rights, questions of resource management, competing visions of government, and the role of immigration. Please join Dr. Nell Brownell for a five-week exploration that will include lecture, video, and discussion; short readings will be assigned but no tests required
