This session introduces UGA’s Anne Barge Historic Clothing and Textiles Collection as both a teaching collection and an archive of fashion and regional history. We will approach garments as primary sources, inviting participants to consider what clothing can reveal about everyday life, social dynamics, labor, and cultural change. The session also introduces core curatorial and archival practices, including how objects enter a collection, how they are documented and stored, and how exhibitions and research shape their interpretation over time.

This class will explore the full sweep of the religion of Islam. Your instructor will answer your critiques and most essential questions about the second-largest and fastest-growing religion in the world. He will discuss the basic tenets of Islam; its sources (Quran, Sunnah, and Hadith); the life of Muhammad; a brief history of Islam; the main Islamic sects and their origin; and the concept of Jihad in Islam. You will also learn about the Islamic understanding of Jesus, Mary, and the People of the Book. Finally, the class will discuss Islam in the current world.
