ARTH-A 290: HOW ARCHITECTURE WORKS: THE UNIVERSITY AS MACHINE (3 credits)

About

Taking IUB as a case study, this course examines architecture as an expression of educational ideals. People design buildings and shape the landscape in order to achieve specific ends; with that in mind, we will try to sort out how the physical fabric of this institution expresses certain cultural, political, and social ideals. Comparing the infrastructure of this campus with other examples, we will try to shed light on what your families hope you've been doing, what you think you've been doing, and what the state expects you to do in the future.
