We will examine the Italian intervention in Ethiopia in 1890s, the Boer War, the French conquest of Morocco and the Italian of Libya; the impact of World War I and Versailles on the continent and the growth of Communist influence. Students will learn about the impact of Italy's invasion of Ethiopia in 1930s, the Depression of 1930s and World War II, followed by the growth of African nationalism and the Non-Aligned Movement in the 1950s. The competition between USA and USSR in the 1960s, Rhodesian UDI, the Nigerian Civil War, the conflict in Lusophone Africa in the 1970s and 1980s will be discussed. Then we shall explore structural Adjustment in 1980s, Apartheid in South Africa, the impact of the end of Communism in the 1990s, Africa's "second independence" in the 1990s, and UN/US intervention in Somalia.

Course Description: The idea of our voting system for Congress is simple in principle. The devil is in the details. Each state is allowed a number of representatives roughly proportional to its population. In the case of the House of Representatives, these become our Congressmen. In the case of the election of our President, they become the Electoral College. This class will discuss 1) the details for the Congressional case, including five ways Congresspersons have been apportioned to States and paradoxes that have occurred., and 2) the presidential elections in which the successful presidential candidate did not win the popular vote.

Course Description: Imagine if there were an organ in your body that weighed as much as your brain, that affected your memory and mood, your health, weight, and even your behavior. Wouldn’t you want to know about it? There is such an organ — the collection of microbes in and on your body, your human microbiome. Your human microbiome produces molecules decreasing the effects of stress, alters hormones and influences immune functioning affecting behavior, and produces molecules altering brain vessels impacting cognition. This course offers a fascinating glimpse into the mind-gut connection and how keeping your gut healthy keeps your mind healthy.
