This winter’s topic: <strong>Consumer Culture</strong>.</p><p>What are the relationships between America’s consumer culture and the rest of the world? What are the economic, environmental, labor, and health impacts of consumer culture for the people who make and/or consume everyday products like the food we eat, the clothing we wear, and the prescription drugs that keep us healthy? To what extent might the conditions of contemporary consumer culture foster a dehumanizing and ever-expanding “iron cage” that might enclose producers and consumers alike? This winter term, we’ll address all of these questions, sharpening our skills in speaking, writing, and critical thinking along the way.</p><p>AMST 352 is offered at UMBC’s Shady Grove campus, and fulfills the Arts and Humanities GEP and the Culture requirement for undergraduates.</p><h4><a href="https://highpoint-prd.ps.umbc.edu/app/catalog/classsection/UMBC1/2170/1239" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Register Now!</a></h4></div>

Studying in Asia before graduating can give students a competitive advantage in their professional careers, especially when collaborating with international peers. More than half of Freeman-ASIA alumni report being employed in a position related to Asian affairs or requiring knowledge of an Asian language. As more employers seek new hires with meaningful and substantive experience in Asia, it is critical that more Americans learn about and engage with Asian economies, political systems and cultures.</p><p>More information:</p><p>To learn more about eligibility requirements, the timeline, and to access the application, students should visit the Freeman-ASIA website at <a href="https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http://www.iie.org/Freeman-ASIA&amp;data=01%7C01%7Clkendall@amnh.org%7C335b74fda35a46f43b3e08d3ec8a33d7%7Cbe0003e8c6b9496883aeb34586974b76%7C1&amp;sdata=eQILsPJJTANb3jhpXNInY6tLPQq8eEWdYJXV82PueEc=&amp;reserved=0" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">http://www.iie.org/Freeman-ASIA</a>.  </p></div>
