GBL2010 DISCOVERING DIXIE
This course explores the diverse cultures, rich histories and traditions, music, food, and locations that help create our contemporary definitions of “Dixie” and encourages students to develop a formative understanding of the region as a multi-cultural and dynamic, rapidly evolving yet perpetually “southern” influence in the United States. The course is a travel-embedded course that begins meeting on campus, then travels for approximately 12 days to locations such as the Eastern Band of the Cherokee Qualla Indian Boundary; Nashville and Memphis, Tennessee; Oxford, Mississippi; New Orleans, Louisiana; Mobile, Selma and Birmingham, Alabama; Atlanta, Georgia; and Charlotte, North Carolina.
