MLO 4: SECONDARY CULTURAL KNOWLEDGE
In addition to the Spanish language and Hispanic cultures, the student demonstrates a general knowledge of a sociocultural group other than a Hispanic one or mainstream American culture. The student develops a basic understanding of the ways of thinking (ideas, beliefs, attitudes, values, philosophies), the behavioral practices (patterns of social interactions) and the cultural products – both tangible and intangible (for example, art, history, literature, music) – of the second culture.
There are two pathways by which this outcome can be fulfilled:
The student completes at least one upper division course whose focus is a sociocultural group not reflected by a Hispanic culture. General areas to choose from are: literature, the social sciences (anthropology, geography, history, political systems), art history, music history and/or the second cultural group.
With faculty approval, the student may opt for a more individual pathway, choosing to independently study, research and analyze the working components of the second culture.
