EGMT 1530

Probably the best way to cover the Engaging Differences requirement; most of the class concerns examining humor and its functions, which basically means you'll be reading a bunch of jokes and theories about jokes. Inger is incredibly kind, and as a classics teacher brings a unique perspective to humor, working in ancient texts and philosophers. We went to the downtown mall one day to see Joker as part of the class which was fun, and there's a final project which is a short essay about a type of joke/humor and its functions today versus in ancient times. Overall, a class that's not much work and quite funny with a delightful teacher who makes you feel at home.
