Ralph Young, History Professor

Course: Dissent in America

Throughout American history individuals and groups of people, have marched to the beat of a different drummer, and raised their voices in strident protest. Study the story and development of dissent in America. How has dissent shaped American society? In addition to studying the historical antecedents of dissent students will have first-hand experience visiting and studying a present-day dissent organization in the Philadelphia area to investigate connections between the history of dissent and the process of making dissenting opinion heard today.

so how are we going to "get out" of class and get involved in the city? perhaps city politics? or state politics, because the last thing i wanted is get stuck in class.

Great professor!! Friendly, very understanding and always available during office hours. I took US History with him, and i enjoyed his lecture and class discussion very much. I'll definitely check out his book.
