Humanities: Human Liberty
This course is designed to educate the stu- dent and promote awareness about the major art works and cultural aspects inher- ent in the humanities from prehistory to the Renaissance. Aesthetic and formal ele- ments, styles, and ideas as experienced in these art forms are studied.
(Online) Music Appreciation is designed to give the student a background in the history and appreciation of music from antiquity to the present. Major com- posers and their representative works, musical forms, and instruments are reviewed and discussed in class. Records and professional concerts are used extensively for illustration.
This course covers the primary medical, legal, and ethical issues encountered in day-to-day health care practices. These issues include: licensure, confidentiality, consent, the physician/patient relation- ship, malpractice, and litigation. A variety of secondary medical legal issues will also be addressed, such as intentional torts, pub- lic duties and responsibilities, and employ- ment laws. In addition, codes of ethics, as well as the relationship between law and ethics, are discussed.
For more than one hundred years, world culture has been increasingly defined and influenced by the moving picture. As in literature, plot, theme, motif, and image are developed in film to provide an au- dience with an art form that gives insight into the human condition. In this course, we will explore significant cinematic achievement from the earliest Edison kinetoscopes to the critically acclaimed films of today. In addition, important technical strides, such as the transition to sound, will be dis- cussed. Various genres utilizing complete films and clips, as well as documentaries, will be explored. Class assignments will include essays and critiques.
