SOC 134: Sports and Society


[4.0 units]

Sports are often dismissed as unimportant to society’s working. However, some of society’s most important moments, racial integration (Jackie Robinson), gender equality (Title IX), and recognition of new nations (Olympics) have been through sports. We examine the dynamics sports play in society, focusing on issues of race, gender and nationality.

Prerequisite: SOC 001  or ANTH 001  or POLI 001  or consent of instructor.
