SPT 100 - History of Sports in America
Credit(s): 3
This course will examine sports in America from the colonial period to the present. Students will explore how unorganized athletic activities were transformed into high-profile spectator sports that we consume today. Focus will be placed on the ways in which issues such as race, class, gender, nationalism, and foreign politics shaped competition and impacted our culture. Both broad topics and specific events in sports history will be considered to gain a greater understanding of the ways in which sports have, and continue to, influence American society.
