Advisory: Eligibility for ENGL 099 and READ 099.
This course is designed to study the culture and home life of varying populations. The study of each culture begins with a history of the group in its native environment then moves to its history and current demographics in the United States. Worldview is studied, including traditional foods, health practices and beliefs. Immigrant influence on American cooking, as well as impact on the health care system, will be analyzed and compared. Course includes sampling of foods from various cultures studied. The course will encourage self-examination and individual cultural identification as well as cultural bias of the student. It expands attitudes towards diversity and is essential for health care providers, food service professionals, dietitians and nutritionists. (CSU, AVC)
