Social Justice Residential College

On hold for academic year 2023-24

Critically examine marginalization based on intersections of age, ability, class, gender, race, religion and sexuality. Meet the challenge of these complex societal issues and learn how to work locally and globally toward a more just world.

Alternative .25-credit Course

In lieu of the traditional Social Justice Residential College program, which is not offered this year, Bucknell will offer a quarter-credit, pass/fail class: RESC 121 Social Justice Learning Community. This course will examine marginalization based on intersections of age, ability, class, gender, race, religion and sexuality and how dominant power structures work implicitly and explicitly to undermine the interests of marginalized people. The class, led by Professors Chase Gregory, English, and Jennifer Thomson, history, will run in fall and spring semesters and is open to all students subject to availability.
