CNX 180 - Animal Welfare

Description
Can you imagine what it’s like to be a dog? A cow? A lobster? Our everyday lives affect animals in a variety of ways; this course will help you examine our interactions with animals more deeply. We will consider contemporary and historical sources from science, philosophy, and culture to help you wrestle with underlying issues in animal welfare and develop your own informed opinions. In the process, you will cultivate critical skills for success at F&M including close reading and description, engaging with competing perspectives, considering the source and audience of an argument, and constructing evidence-based arguments of your own
