Ithaca College

Covid-19 has impacted our community in many ways. We are all coping with escalating stressors, isolation, grief, and disconnection from regular sources of support and stability. A particular concern during this time is for students who may be social distancing in a home, apartment, or dorm with an abusive partner or caregiver. This creates additional concerns about safety and resources while survivors are isolated from school, work, and other sources of connection and support.

Join the Advocacy Center for an online conversation about:

• The impacts of COVID-19 on relationship violence

• Available services on and off campus and how the Advocacy Center is supporting survivors during this time

• Strategies to support someone you are worried about

• Live Q&A

SUMMER 2021 – POLT 10100  Introduction to US Politics 

Can you explain your political ideology? We start the class with a framework of ideologies that will help us to understand different perspectives on the purpose and scope of government.  We then use this framework as we learn about and evaluate the machinery of our institutions broadly defined: Congress, the presidency, bureaucracy, judiciary, parties, interest groups, media, and the electoral process.  

We will use the lenses of ideology and the institutional machinery to understand specific policies such as social security, health care, taxes, civil liberties, and foreign policy. Throughout, we will constantly ask: how democratic is this place? Who is included and who is not?  What are your criteria for measuring democracy?

Why do people find it difficult to connect with nature?

It’s never good to generalize, but society, as it is shaped at the present time, has created this disassociation. Enjoy without destroying is one of our greatest brands. We want nature alive, so we can live our life, too.
