ARTS 048 - Visual Concepts and Processes: What’s Natural Isn’t Real 3 HU
Second Semester. This is a studio course where students are introduced to painting in acrylics or oils from the landscape.

To establish this context the time spent painting in the studio will be supplemented by several trips to the Allen Art Museum, and some reading. The class will be focused on the practice of painting and drawing learning both how the art we make influences what we see and how what we see influences the art we make.

Second Semester. This course is a ‘hands on’ exploration of vernacular visual traditions existing within African American Culture.

BIOL 207 - The Fungi 3 NS
First Semester. First Module. A study of the major groups of the fungi. Lectures and laboratory will deal with the ecological and economic importance, the life cycles, and evolutionary relationships of the fungi. Laboratories will emphasize the collection and identification of local edible and poisonous species of mushrooms with weekly Tuesday field trips. Thursday labs will be devoted to identifying new specimens and examination of important, smaller, less well-known fungi.
