CM 252 SPORT, COMMUNICATION & CULTURE 3.0 Credit(s)
Sporting culture impacts the American public through economic and ideological institutions that structure our perceptions of the world. In contemporary society, sport is both big business and personal recreation, and yet despite its influence on American culture, sport remains a relatively unexplored segment of popular culture. In this class we will pay particular attention to the images and narratives of sporting media that construct representations of class, masculinity, gender, and nation in and around everyday mass-mediated athletic activities. Sport, Culture, & the Media is an examination of sports and media in our everyday lives. Prerequisite: TAKE CM-101
Offered: Fall Semester All Years
