As Professor Geoffrey Turnovsky says: The first flyer offers information about the minor in Textual Studies and Digital Humanities. The second flyer is for a proseminar that we?re planning on printing, bibliography and Special Collections, to be held in the Special Collections classroom. Our hope is it will bring interest to the minor and encourage students to pursue it. Since the class will have to be small, we?re initially limiting enrollment to those in the minor or interested in declaring it. But we?ll open it up after a week or two. For now, students should just reach out for an add code (which I can distribute). We?d love to have History students in the course and the minor, and I?d like to think the minor would speak to History undergraduates interested in archives and historical sources.

We recommend students have completed at least two 300-400 level History courses before taking HSTRY 388. Students need to have taken HSTRY 388 before they are eligible to register in HSTRY 494 or 498. If you want to add one of these courses, email the History Advisers (histadv@uw.edu) to be given an add code or to be put on the waiting list. Please remember to give clear information about which section you want to add, and also include your name and UW student number. These classes fill VERY quickly, so request your add codes sooner than later. Junior Seminars: HSTRY 388 A, Prof. Bianca Dang, "Slavery in the Americas," MW 130-320, Gould 117 This seminar will introduce students to a number of historical methodologies that scholars have crafted and adapted in order to chronicle the histories of enslaved people in the Americas from the 16th to the 19th centuries. It will provide an overview of the legal and ideological frameworks that determined the specific forms that racialized chattel slavery took in different parts of the hemisphere across this period. It will be particularly focused on how these frameworks reflected shifting notions of racialized gender at different moments. In this course, students will gain experience working with a variety of sources such as photographs, material culture, and speeches which enable scholars to write historical accounts that are attentive to the perspectives and experiences of enslaved people. In addition, students will practice undertaking historical methodologies for analyzing written sources such as letters, legal tracts, and newspaper articles which enable scholars to glean insights about the institution of slavery and the actions of enslaved people that the writers of these sources never intended, such as enslaved people's strategies of everyday resistance, the pseudo-scientific ideas that undergirded the invention of "race," and the ways that enslaved people used local laws and customs to negotiate for greater autonomy. HSTRY 388 B, Prof. James Gregory, "American Social Movements Since 1900: from Woman Suffrage to Black Lives Matter to White Nationalism," TTh 130-320, Loew 222 Social movements are a key feature of American politics. Especially since the start of the 20th century, certain social movements have been highly influential, reshaping ideas and political life, achieving major changes in law and policy, in some cases rearranging rules of race, gender, and economy. Others have been much less effective. This course explores the dynamics and the history of social movements of many kinds seeking to understand how they work and how they achieve influence. Moving chronologically, we will explore Woman Suffrage movements in the early decades of the 20th century, labor radicalism including the IWW and the Seattle General Strike of 1919, the Ku Klux Klan in the 1920s, unemployed movements in the 1930s, civil rights movements from the 1950s-1970s, ending with two recent social movements: Black Lives Matter and organized racist movements that promote white nationalism. HSTRY 388 C, Prof. Hajin Jun, "Christianity in East Asia," MW 1030-1220, Mechanical Engineering Building 102 This course examines the long and dynamic history of Christianity in East Asia, beginning with its origins in the 16th century to the present. We will explore shared religious experiences that transcended national boundaries, while also tracing the divergent trajectories that Catholicism, and later, Protestantism, took in China, Korea, and Japan. The following questions will help guide our inquiry: What motivations propelled Christian missionary activities? How did Christian beliefs and practices adapt to local contexts? How did the rise of modern empires impact the spread of Christianity in the region? How do global flows shape Christianity in Asia today? To investigate these questions, students will encounter a wide range of primary sources, including letters, novels, maps, and ethnographic accounts. Ultimately, the course will call upon students to reconsider dichotomous understandings of Christianity as either an agent of Western imperialism or a catalyst for modernization HSTRY 498 A, Prof. Bruce Hevly, "Firearms in U.S. History," ***The Time for This Course is Changing. It Will Be Offered Mondays from 230-420PM*** This seminar will explore the topic of firearms in American cultures from the colonial period to the twentieth century, taking cases from Constitutional, political, legal gender and consumer histories, based in the history of science and technology. I plan to frame these researches in terms of the historical reasoning embodied in court decisions concerning firearms restrictions, and the militia clauses in federal and state constitutions. We will consider the tensions between government interests in promoting firearm use and marksmanship training, and interest in public safety. We will also investigate state constitutional templates concerning firearm ownership and state militias. This is a W course. HSTRY 498 B, Prof. Nathan Roberts, "Bodies, Commodities, and Global Environments," ***The Time for This Course is Changing. It Will Be Offered Tuesdays from 1030-1220PM*** This conceptually-rich seminar explores the interplay between physical bodies (human and non-human), commodities and the process of commodification, and specific places and environments. Far from being discrete entities, each of these permeates the others in ways that challenge our understandings of materiality. Drawing on literature especially from environmental history, the class investigates histories of enslavement and wage labor, public health, consumer trends, and environmental change. The course calls into question the agency of non-human parts of environments, examines the social histories of consumer goods, and illuminates how our bodies are both in and of markets and ecologies. This is a Writing (W) course.

The U Book Store is going through some of the most dramatic changes in its history, and student trustees will play a vital role in the future of the Book Store. No experience is necessary, and students will learn about many facets of the Book Store's business and development plans, including: * Community outreach and engagement * Revitalization of the U District * Real estate development * Public finance and non-profit partnerships * Campus partnerships across all academic and administrative units * Marketing and communications * Urban planning, transit, and campus+community needs Student trustees should be able to serve a minimum of two years, and ideally three, to be able to understand the complexities of the roles and build trustee knowledge. Rising sophomores and juniors may apply, and putting this on your resume, LinkedIn page, and CV will be a highlight no matter what your plans are after graduation. The board meets September through June once a month in the evenings. The application can be found here: http://volunteer.asuw.org/ and directly linked here: https://forms.office.com/r/5weBKPvR88 I have had the pleasure of being a trustee for the last six years and have worked with some AMAZING students.
