HON 211 - World of Language

Semester Hours: 4

This course provides honors students the opportunity to look at language and its interaction with humanity-or maybe that goes the other way around: humanity and its interaction with language. Either way, we spend the semester looking at how these two things interact. We start with an exploration of language itself, answering questions like, “what is a language?” and “how do languages work”? From there, we move to discussions about how language impacts people and how people impact language.
