Themes might include but are not restricted to the issue of divided political sovereignty in a federal system, the national experience of war, the changing demography of Americans, the frontier, rural-urban tensions, or reform movements in America. The course will also introduce students to the principles of historical inquiry through small-group projects, written exercises in evaluation of historical sources, and discussion of historical debates over interpretation and evidence.”  If interested, please email Department Chair Katherine Pence at Katherine.Pence@baruch.cuny.edu with your interest and send a CV and sample syllabus if available.
