What responsibilities exist in these relationships? How do social forces (e.g., poverty, racism, and sexism) shape these roles and inform one’s responsibilities? Through reading, discussion, and service activities, students will reflect upon community experiences, how these experiences influence their personal and public worlds, and their personal values in relation to these spheres, while identifying and examining their own value systems as they are situated in the values systems of other contexts, including those of their service sites and the Dominican tradition. Class members must have a concurrent field placement within their majors, and content will be based in part of the experiences of students in these placements.
