HIS 241 - History of Iowa

(2 credits, alternate years, consult department)
Through a study of the historical development of the varied peoples who have lived in Iowa, and through consideration of the impact the people of Iowa have had on each other (social and cultural environment) and on the land (natural environment), this course seeks to engage in place-based education. In light of a postmodern world in which place matters little, a historical understanding of Iowa–social, cultural and environmental–will contribute to providing connections to a place.
