Course Description

GO Morocco: Land of Cultural Crossroads is a multi-disciplinary course that focuses on questions of geological barriers and the history of overlapping cultures, traditions, and practices. As a country varied in its landscapes and peoples, Morocco offers a rich opportunity for students to consider the effects of human cultures on place and resources and, conversely, how land and "senses of place" shape cultural practice and production. The concept of multiple "microcultures" is useful for thinking about Morocco; a key factor in creating these cultural entities is topographic barriers. GO Morocco introduces students to these culturally diverse regions and creates opportunities for them to interact with Moroccans from all layers of society (students, professors, group associations, local leaders, and others). Through these interactions, students will become more familiar with Morocco's rich mixture of daily cultural practices. 1 SH. CC: Cross-Cultural.
