Appointment” Tempe,
on My
ASU to
● Priority enrollment for honors students is February 26, 2015. See the details of your “Enrollment
find out
exactly what time you may begin registering for classes. You may continue making changes online through the first week of classes. If
you have questions or concerns about your enrollment appointment as noted on My ASU, please contact the advising office at
480.965.9155.
● Be sure to see your major advisor so you’ll be cleared to register, and resolve any other “Holds” mentioned on My ASU, prior to
registering.
● This document is designed to inform you of opportunities for honors classes in Fall 2015. Feel free to come by and
discuss courses with an honors advisor in Sage Hall North. Business Honors students can go to BA 109 for assistance. If you’re
looking for honors directed study or thesis class numbers, see the department of your thesis director.
● List of classes and courses for which honors contracts are specifically available is at the VERY bottom of this document.
Please remember that honors contract courses must be taught by full-time ASU faculty, and contracts are only available
online the first few weeks of class. As you are choosing courses, look for classes taught by faculty members titled as: Full Professor,
Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, or regularly appointed Lecturer or Instructor, if you plan to pursue an honors contract in the
class. Many classes for which honors contracts are particularly available will be noted in the university’s schedule of classes with a
class note mentioning, “Honors Contracts available for this class.”
●For Course Descriptions, scroll all the way down—past all the Excel Spreadsheets. Project Excellence Courses and Descriptions are
listed AFTER all the regular HON and Honors Only Section spreadsheets and descriptions (approx. pg. 15).
***DISCLAIMER: Details in the schedule are subject to additions, subtractions & changes without warning.
PLEASE check back often and double check the information in this document with that in the online
schedule of university classes (the online catalog is likely the most correct). ***

HON 194 - The Development of LeadershipThis course explores compelling questions about leadership and its impact on society, while giving
students the opportunity to build a cohesive network of shared experiences to measure their effectiveness in making ethical choices while
exercising leadership in their personal and professional lives. Components of leadership development such as values-based leadership, theory and
practice are addressed as students consider ethical issues, the role of ethics in decision-making and the processes by which leaders make
decisions and affect change in a variety of roles and circumstances. The theoretical and experiential approach focuses on a variety of learning
activities, including case discussions, simulations, and applied leadership exercises. OPEN ONLY TO FIRST SEMESTER FRESHMEN.
HON 194/294/394/494: Honors Devils
The Honors Devils paraprofessional student organization at the West campus of Barrett meets for a one-credit course on Friday mornings. Students
must apply to become an Honors Devil. For more information, contact [email protected].
HON 272 - The Human Event (second semester)
Continuation of HON 171. Discussion of landmark texts in human social and intellectual development, with emphasis on critical thinking and
argumentative writing, from approximately 1600 CE to the present. Prerequisite: HON 171 with a ‘C’ or better.
HON 370: - History of Ideas
An advanced and intensive survey of key social and intellectual currents in the development of the human race organized around a topic or theme,
with an emphasis on critical thinking and argumentative writing. Enrollment is restricted to upper-division students transferring into Barrett, the
Honors College.
14
Simpson course description: This interdisciplinary seminar will explore the philosophy and practice of leadership in peace and war from ancient
Greece to the nineteenth century. What makes for a good leader? How has that definition changed over time? How does one link the means of
policy to the ends of statecraft? Students will read and discuss the writings of Plutarch, Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, and
Clausewitz, among others, who have shaped notions of leadership across time.
Ingram-Waters course description: In this three credit upper division honors seminar, students will explore historical and modern notions of social
control. In our readings, assignments, and discussions, we will engage with a range of primary sources, including religious texts, works of literature,
art, and music, and selections from sociology, media studies, and queer theory.
Stanford course description: This course will examine ideas about crime and punishment from ancient times to the present. Readings will consist of
religious texts (e.g., the Laws of Manu, the Covenant Code, the Koran), secular laws (e.g., the Arizona Revised Statutes), and excerpts from the
work of legal philosophers (e.g., Beccarria, Kant), as well as a number of literary works, including novels, poems, and plays. Through all of these
texts, we will pursue a recurring set of questions—What makes something a crime? Why have different societies defined “crime” so differently?
What is the difference between a crime and a wrong (or tort) under civil law? How do different theories of government yield different ideas about
crime? What forces—social, psychological, moral—turn a person into a criminal? Assuming that it is necessary to punish lawbreakers, exactly
what form should that punishment take? And in prescribing forms of punishment, how should we balance justice and mercy?
HON 394 –The History and Evolution of Human Food
The course is an examination of the history and the evolution of the relationship between humans and their food. A part of the course will focus on
the origins of agriculture 8,000 to 10,000 years ago, asking why and how this profound change in our eating and foraging habits occurred. But we
will also use paleoanthropological resources and informed speculation about human physiology and nutrition to try to understand pre-agricultural
human and hominid diets. And we will extend our study to the present, looking at modern cuisines, cultural and nutritional differences in the food
humans eat today, and speculating about how our evolved physiology copes with the nutritional input we give it.
HON 394 – History of Travel: A Voyage for Identity
This course will survey the history of travel, from its earlier and perhaps most problematic recorded beginnings to the present day. Part of this
exercise is to understand better not only how long people have encountered each other in a global space, but also use those interactions to inform
how people construct identity. Our weekly meetings will examine travel from a geographic perspective, as well as socio-economic, cultural,
religious, and military perspective.
HON 394 – 21st Century Skills
Description: The skills needed to succeed in the 21st Century are dramatically different from the skills needed to succeed in the last century. What
has changed? Information is now ubiquitous. Success now depends on how well you can use that information. What skills are required for the 21st
Century and how can we acquire them? Employers are in agreement about what those skills are and that current graduates lack them. This course
will focus on how to develop the 21st Century skills:
1) Locating and evaluating information
2) Developing a conceptual framework to organize knowledge
3) Critical thinking for complex problems
4) Collaboration among diverse experts
15
5) Communication within and without the expert domain
6) Creative experimentation in search of new insights
This will be a project-based and student-centered course. Students will each work on a research project related to their major of their own
choosing. The project can be related to another course or major requirement such as a senior thesis or capstone project or the student can choose
a project for this course. Together we will investigate how to acquire and evaluate the skills listed above.
HON 394 - Writing to Teach, Teaching to Write
People who toss around the old adage, “Those who can’t do, teach” have likely never tried to teach writing without being effective writers
themselves. This course proceeds from the premise that the successful teaching of writing—whether in one-on-one conferences, group workshops,
or in the classroom—stems from both a theoretical understanding of the intricacies of the written word, from grammar and syntax to rhetorical style,
and a sincere enthusiasm for the practice of writing. Taking the form of a combination pedagogy class and writing workshop, this course will
explore the teaching of rhetoric and composition at the college level. Students will discuss and practice strategies for effective writing tutoring,
revision and editing both their work and the work of others, and other aspects of writing pedagogy from syllabus design to assignment development.
This course is recommended for aspiring writers and editors, current Barrett writing tutors, those who would like to become tutors at the Barrett
Writing Center, and those who are otherwise hoping, at some point in their careers, to teach writing in secondary or post-secondary educational
settings.
HON 394 -Russian Civilization, “The Russian Event”
Russia cannot be understood by reason alone.
Common measures cannot be applied to her.
She has a special character.
One must simply believe in Russia. - Fedor Tiutchev.
. . . Russia. It is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma. - Winston Churchill
These views express conceptions that many hold about the unique and mysterious nature of Russia. Whether you agree with these assessments
or not, Russia’s culture inarguably has contributed much to world civilization. This course is designed as an introduction to Russian society and
culture from the earliest East Slav settlements to the present day. We will explore the development of Russia through an overview of its art,
architecture, literature, music, thought, and film.
Hon 394 - Political Ecology of Borders
This one-credit seminar course is designed to increase the students’ appreciation of the complex and sometimes paradoxical roles of human and
nonhuman actors who inhabit the diverse ecological and geopolitical spaces of borderlands. Political ecology recognizes that there is a link between
the production of nature and the process of making borders. Understanding the histories of bordered spaces and the subjects that inhabit them can
help illuminate how the concept of nature shifts as people delimit, maintain, secure, and militarize borders. The goal is to see how these narratives
about nature shape the lived present and limit future choices.
HON 394 - Anthropology and Play: RPG Creative Laboratory
This one credit class is designed to introduce students to the anthropology of games and play and to ethnographic writing through experiential
learning. Students will encounter readings in the anthropology and philosophy of games as well as receiving classes in the ethnographic
16
method. The majority of the semester will be spent in a creative laboratory creating and playing a role-playing game (RPG) world using the
GURPS 4th Edition (Generic Universal Role-Playing System) platform. GURPS is a RPG system wherein each player takes on the role of a
character of their own (or another's) creation, and collaborates with other players in acting out that character's actions when presented with a
scenario by a referee player called the Game Master (GM). The actions of the character, and the interactions with characters controlled by other
players, result in a collaboratively-generated story featuring the players' characters as protagonists. One of the class’s premises will be an extension
and creative re-telling of stories of the ancient world. This will both give students an opportunity to re-visit the characters of their Human Event
classes, but also to inhabit them and creatively explore how they might interact beyond the boundaries of their text.
HON 394 - Diversity in American Cultures: Race, Autobiography, and American Politics
This course examines the American tradition of autobiographical writing with particular attention to how it addresses issues of racial politics and
democratic leadership.
HON 394 - Medicine and Madness in Film and Literature
From Charlotte Perkins Gilman's "The Yellow Wallpaper" (1892) to David O. Russell's Silver Linings Playbook (2012), popular culture has long
exhibited an interest in the unlikely juxtapositions and unsettling dream sequences inherent to representing mental illness. Drawing on literature
and film from the late nineteenth century to the present day, this course will chart a theoretical history of cultural representations of mental illness
and encourage students to consider the historical contexts out of which these works emerge. While taking psychological and psychiatric writings
and theories into consideration, this course does not purport to present a scientific understanding of mental illness. Instead, it will view madness as
cultural “artifact,” examining the cultural representations, and the associated political and historical dimensions, that arise from shifting attitudes
toward and understanding of mental illness.
HON 394 – Deductive Logic, Leadership & Industry Structure
This course will teach students a structure in which they can “know everything without knowing any technical information.” It will investigate ways to
analyze reality and problems occurring in everyday life and the industry, showing students the simple and logical solutions that can be applied to
solve problems. Information Measurement Theory is a foundation of many leading-edge technologies that have been developed at ASU and tested
worldwide in construction and non-construction related services. The course material will come from the brains of the world, such as, Socrates,
Einstein, and Deming. In this class students will learn and apply advanced business systems that have been test over 800 times on over $3 Billion
of projects in numerous industries, with sustained 98% performance. Student will learn how to use information in a way that lets them see the “big
picture” without knowing the details, to become more efficient by doing less work, and increase efficiency and effectiveness. This class is based
upon a 16 year, $9.5M research effort in the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering.
HON 394 – Myth and Mysteries of the Tarot: An Opening into Creativity
This workshop is meant to acquaint students with the archetypes contained in the 78 cards of the tarot. It includes basic instruction in reading cards
with basic spreads for the purposes of meditation, personal decision-making, and as a prompt to artistic creativity. From the Sforza-Visconti tarot
deck to the popular James Bond deck, the tarot has been as source of active imagination for artists and creators throughout time. The class focuses
on investigating how the images of the tarot have influenced both classical and folkloric art, and how these in turn have enriched the archetypes
presently illustrated in the tarot. The course will outline how artists (Shakespeare, W.B. Yeats, Lorca, T.S. Eliot, etc.) have used tarot archetypes
and rituals in their work. The instructor has handled and investigated the 15th century Cary-Yale Visconti Tarot deck (at the Yale Beinecke Rare
Book Manuscript), has researched the Salvador Dali tarot of the 1970s, and has studied the Alistair Crowley tarot deck, the Palladini Aquarian deck,
and the Rider-Waite deck by Pamela Colman Smith.
17
Students will be expected to keep a journal in which they will record weekly exercises based on the cards. As a final project, students will turn in a
research term paper on one of the figures of the Major Arcana. Students will also be expected to perform a standard 10-card Celtic Cross reading
and record their findings.
HON 394 – The Quest for Enhanced Consciousness: from the Greeks to Google
This class would examine three broad paths to enhanced consciousness, or improved thought, through the millennia. Efforts to discipline the
workings of the mind emerged as early as the Greeks, and continued through the Enlightenment. In contemporary times, two new paths for
enhancing consciousness have emerged, one driven by bio-pharmaceutical technologies and the other driven by digital electronics, computing and
the Internet. All three approaches – mental discipline, “the pill,” and “the processor” – coexist today. The class will explore the differences and
similarities in approaches to enhanced consciousness. Today the bio-pharma and digital computing approaches are so robust that perfect
consciousness and an immortal or everlasting mind is believed to be possible. Why have humans pursued improved ways of thinking for millennia.
What’s new and challenging about today’s approaches? What are the dangers of enhanced consciousness, what are the potential benefits, and
how can we learn from the past as well as imagine and design more appropriate paths to enhanced consciousness in future? Put more bluntly, must
knowledge workers, of any age, contemplate taking Adderall to stay competitive?
HON 394 – Field Experience: Changemaking in Education
In an interdisciplinary, collaborative and applied course, students of all majors can explore the topics of education and entrepreneurship. Co-taught
by representatives from Teach For America and the Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College, students will learn what it means to confront the challenges,
opportunities, failures and successes in education through interactive, entrepreneurial coursework. Class will meet as a group periodically
throughout the semester while students participate in designing community innovations. Students will create a final applied project that enhances
their understanding of how to impact our education system resulting in applications to funding sources with a chance to win prizes to make ideas
happen, including up to $10,000 from the ASU Changemaker Challenge, and to begin work on a possible thesis project.
HON 394 – Explorations in Sleep – Hybrid (at Downtown) Session A
Selected theories on sleep regulation, normal sleep patterns over the lifespan, normal sleep variations, and good sleep hygiene. Students will
explore selected theories on sleep regulation, normal sleep patterns over the lifespan, and normal sleep variations. Students also will propose good
sleep hygiene practices.
HON 394- Social Innovation and Creative Confidence – (at Downtown campus)Session B
This course will provide a learning culture where intellectual virtues, personal/social compassion and collision thinking will help to incubate personal
discoveries into novel ideas and actions. Social innovation terms, principles, and skills will be practiced and translated for personal, intellectual and
social application.
HON 394-Self-Defense for Self-Confidence and Safety - (at Downtown campus)
This class provides the opportunity to learn a system of practical, proven self-defense techniques, and educate the individual in the strategies of
personal safety and awareness. This class is a composite based on over 25 years of experience, including street self-defense, unarmed weapons
defense, defense from the ground, abduction resistance, effective use of your environment, and defense tools found in the everyday world.
18
HON 394-Running into Injury - (at Downtown campus)Session B
Recent best-selling books have begun challenging long held beliefs about distance running training. This course will investigate if these new notions
have any scientific merit and the cultural and commercial consequences of a potential paradigm shift in training for distance running. Are we really
“born to run” and what is an “unbreakable runner”? Is modern medicine right in saying that if we want to see less injuries people should stop running
or are there ways to train smarter?
HON 394: Contemporary Mexican Cinema (at West campus)
This course will address major topics and auteurs in contemporary film as their work intersects with larger cultural phenomena. Through film and
literature, we will examine major cultural history in Mexico from the 1968 student movement to the present, the major industrial practices in the
Mexican film industry and how those practices relate to political and economic history of Mexico, critically analyze the visual, sonorous and semantic
qualities of films, and discuss how meaning is made and projected.
HON 394: Utopia/Dystopia: Scifi & Media (at West campus)
Five science fiction novels by female authors, along with many films and media will provide the lenses with which we will come to grips with the
socio-political, artistic, and scientific contexts/concepts of classic utopian and dystopian societies.
HON 394: Richard III (at West campus)
Shakespeare's Richard III presents the audience with a problem. He is at once an endearing character and one that brings sympathy from the
audience. However, as he increasingly engages in heinous deeds he alienates his audience. The play begins with a profound contrast between
medieval and modern politics. Richard places himself firmly in the modern camp and goes about achieving power in a way that today seems very
normal. But he crosses the line. On his last night before the final battle Richard engages in a profound inner dialogue with himself in which he asks
if he should love or hate himself. The next morning he dismisses conscience as a resource for fools saying "march on, join bravely, let us to it pellmell. If not to heaven, then hand in hand to hell." It is easy to see that many of the popular TV shows of today are attempts at imitating the
character of Richard III in showing us dastardly characters that nevertheless have some appeal (consider "Breaking Bad"). The many dimensions
of this play are essential for a college student and will help in their ability to interpret other texts either Shakespearian or contemporary.
HON 394: Walt Whitman's Songs of Himself (at West campus)
Whatever else we should say about the politics of our era, or the condition of our various social compacts, or the health of our body politic, in all
sorts of other ways it seems that contemporary U.S. culture has been shaped by the priorities of Walt Whitman. Certainly it is Whitman’s wild yawp,
his insistence upon an ecstatic romantic individualism, that reverberates through Katy Perry’s promise that you’re gonna hear her roar, or her
promise that UR a firework; in Lady Gaga’s reassurance that you were born this way—an individual, utterly specific and something to celebrate
rather than efface; in Ke$ha’s tautological and yet resonant declaration that “We R Who We R.” Even (perhaps especially!) if the individualism these
artists celebrate remains non-specific, they transact the same romance of the self that energizes the writing of Whitman. “I celebrate myself and
sing myself,” he writes. “For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you.” Just as the first word of the first edition of Whitman's _Leaves of
Grass_ is “I,” and just as the last word is “you,” and just as _Leaves of Grass_ is therefore the bridge that carries that I to that you, Whitman’s most
reflexive association with such bridging is one of eros—something else he shares with his contemporary descendants. “Urge and urge and urge,” he
writes. “Always the procreant urge of the world.”
This course will give us the chance to reflect upon those connections by thinking of Whitman as a writer whose work refracts the antebellum milieu
out of which it arose even as it pushes back against that milieu, and by studying _Leaves of Grass_ as a work in progress whose various revisions
19
tell a story of Whitman and his country over the course of five decades. But our principle activity together will be reading Whitman—his poetry, his
journalism, his manifestos, his fiction; the texts that still transport us and that earn him the unofficial title of America’s absolute poet laureate, and
also the stuff that is so strange or so bad you can hardly believe it’s him. We will not simply “complicate,” but will utterly cast aside platitudinous
renditions of the good gray bard, the “Captain, my Captain” image of Whitman made so tenacious by “The Dead Poet’s Society,” striving instead
toward the fraught kind of rapport that arises, inevitably, whenever one self traverses the distance separating another.
HON 394: Why Do We (Should We?) Pray? (at West campus)
In this course we will look at certain challenges to the traditional use and understanding of prayer (mainly, can God's will be effected by prayer?),
and read different perspectives on how human beings should incorporate prayer into their faiths and lives.
HON 447 – Lean Launch
Students learn lean and customer development methodologies to test assumptions made about a new business concept that they wish
to explore or launch. Teaches how to effectively utilize business models and critically assess the assumptions made through the testing
of hypotheses to create innovative and market-ready ventures. Includes weekly presentations of learning points and team activities
outside of the classroom. Open to students in any major of study with the required prerequisite.
HON 484 – Internships
Structured practical experience following a contract or plan, supervised by faculty and practitioners.
HON 484 – LUX Internship
The LUX Internship is a graded internship available only to students who are selected as editors for LUX, the Undergraduate Creative Review at
ASU. Students will be required to fully participate in all phases of the publishing process from idea to final product, including but not limited to
marketing, submission selection, production and distribution. For more information, contact Nilanjana Bhattacharjya at
[email protected].
HON 484 – Applied Ethics Internship
The Lincoln Center for Applied Ethics is the core creator and curator of ethics activities at Arizona State University, both within and beyond the
curriculum. Lincoln Center programs include real-life ethics seminars, ethics forums for high school and college students, a statewide network of
clinical ethics professionals, and the production of ethics teaching materials from K-12 onward. Working with Lincoln Center staff, affiliated faculty,
and various partners at ASU and in the community, this internship experience will include both scholarly research and practical activities in support
of the Lincoln Center mission. Students will develop knowledge of practical, professional, and applied ethics, and hone both oral and written
communication skills to address diverse audiences effectively.
HON 494 - Malignant: Cancer Politics and Policy
We will examine cancer as a social, political, cultural, economic, literary, and historical construct. In other words, we will try to understand how the
cluster of diseases we call cancer do what they do, from the molecular level through the individual to the social and political levels. This discussionintensive course will center on how people react to cancer, why cancer research has long been a policy priority, and the role of science and policy in
understanding and ameliorating its ravages. We will ask and answer questions such as: Why is cancer so feared? What is the role of cancer
research? How are new medical technologies developed? What are the processes of commodification and exploitation in cancer treatments? What
are the images and concepts that frame how we think about cancer? How do illnesses become “illnesses” and how do those illnesses become
20
industries? Why is cancer treatment so expensive? Does it need to be? Together we will seek to better appreciate the complex ecosystem of
cancer research and cancer care. Creatures in that ecosystem include individual patients and health professionals, abiding in a forest of nonprofit
organizations, research institutions, government agencies, and companies. We will look for answers and insight from science and technology
studies, history, economics, sociology, and bioethics, as well as fiction, movies and personal narratives.
HON 494 – Uncertainty & Decision Making
Knowledge is always incomplete, yet decisions must be made. This seminar explores uncertainty and its relation to decision making, with a
particular focus on the ways that science is applied in order to improve decisions. We will explore the many meanings and origins of uncertainty,
using theoretical and case-based approaches. A central theme will be the relation among uncertainty, scientific prediction, and decision making,
especially in politically charged issues, for example as related to management of the environment. Ultimately, we will want to understand how
effective decisions can be made in the face of inevitable uncertainties.
HON 494 - Information Measurement Theory I
This is the follow-on course to HON 394 Deductive Logic, Leadership/Management Techniques. This course will delve into a deeper analysis and
more in-depth application of the Information Measurement Theory (knowing everything without knowing anything.) IMT replaces the normally
required technical data that is needed to know what to do with logic and natural laws similar to how a computer uses concepts of consistency and
extremes to minimize the need to make decisions. The course will give the students a methodology to replace the traditional approaches to their
industry with a new approach which minimizes the need for traditional experience and expertise, drastically cutting down the time required to have
an impact in the industry. This course will teach students how they can utilize the IMT principles to overcome their relative lack of experience and
immediately become a value added professional in their industry. It will develop the students' ability to lead, plan, and analyze situations which have
a lack of technical information.
HON 494-Developing the Mind of a Champion: Psychological Skills for Optimal Performance – (at Downtown campus) Session A
The course will focus on psychological techniques to improve effectiveness and overall performance in many relevant areas including but not limited
to: academics, sport, work, exercise, and music. We will address motivation, mindset, and confidence through theoretical background and
application of techniques such as self-talk, optimal intensity, performance routines, imagery, goal setting, and emotional management.
HON 494-Leadership Effectiveness: Analysis of the Visions and Practices of Participatory Leaders and Mentors- (at Downtown campus)
Session A
This course introduces students to the conceptual model of effective leadership put forth in Kouzes and Posner's The Leadership Challenge as well
as analyses of leadership behaviors in works of anthropology, history, and literature. The course also focuses on the student's own development as
a leader with the understanding that people are not born leaders; instead, they learn to become leaders, and some learn to become effective
leaders dedicated to mentoring and encouraging others, challenging ineffective processes, sharing and establishing visions and goals, and
encouraging others rather than merely ordering or managing.
HON 497 – Digital Computer Animation/Advanced Digital Computer Animation
Have you ever wondered how Hollywood produces all those wonderful special effects that you see in the movies? Would you like to learn how to tell
the difference between computer images and models? Would you like to be able to create the same type of animations for yourself or your thesis
defense? Well if you answered yes to any of these questions then The Barrett Honors College has a class for you, Computer Digital Animation and
Advanced Digital Computer Animation.
21
You will be using Autodesk Maya 7.0 a state of the art animation software package that has produced animations that can be seen in movies like
The Mummy and the Star Wars Prequels.
The first course begins by showing you how to use the software and techniques to help create a better-looking animation right away. There are no
prerequisites for the course, only your desire to work and learn something new. The course is broken down into five tutorials and one final project.
After each of the five tutorials you will have added a different skill set to your animation bag of tricks that will be applied to your own final animation.
The final animation is of your creation and only has to be approved by the instructor before you begin. Tests and quizzes are kept to a minimum so
that you can focus your work on the tutorials and final project. But please understand this is not a "walk in the park course". You will spend hours
working with Maya in order to complete all the course work that is required.
The second class builds on the knowledge that you gained from the first course and the first course is a requirement of the second class. All of the
work that is completed in the second course is geared toward to final character projects. The first three projects: a character, a building, and an
environment, are geared toward increasing your knowledge of character animation techniques, lighting techniques, camera movement, camera
angles, editing techniques and how they can be applied in a computer generated world. Again in this class tests and quizzes are kept to a minimum
so that you can spend as much time as possible working toward your final projects.
This class is mainly for BHC students, however if there are still seats available when the class begins then students from other colleges will be
allowed in the class. The class is on Monday and Wednesday from 5:40 to 8:30. So if you are interested in this class please contact Rebecca Viles
at 480-727-6510 or by e-mail at additional information please e-mail me at [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>.
HON 497 – The Embryo Project
This seminar will introduce selected students to the National Science Foundation funded Embryo Project. Students will learn about the international
network of scholars developing an exciting new online laboratory through a collaborator virtual laboratory working environment. Each student will
write entries for the encyclopedia, which will be edited and entered into the database once they are accepted. Successful students will also be
invited to write interpretive essays, in some cases in connection with research projects on honors theses, that will be reviewed and published as
part of the project.
Admission is limited, and students must apply for this unique experience. Typically, upper level students with experience in writing and with some
research skills will feel most comfortable in this course. To apply, please visit the Center for Biology and Society in Life Sciences C-Wing room 284.
HON 497 – Community Encounters (at Downtown campus)
This seminar provides opportunities to engage in and with our community. The course objective is to extend perspectives of community and urban
life, through a series of visits with community leaders/organizations focused on improving quality of life. The course requires more than just
participation: it also requires interpretation and integration of your experiences. Transportation will not be provided.
HON 498 – Independent Study
If you are doing Independent Study with a university professor and would like to earn credits for this class, please contact your Barrett advisor for
information and permission to enroll.
HON 499 – Teacher’s Assistant
If you are doing a TA for a Barrett faculty member and would like to earn credits for your work, please talk to the faculty member for whom you TA
and contact your Barrett advisor for information and permission to enroll.

BLE 220 Foundations of Structured English Immersion
In this introductory course, pre-service teachers will explore, critique, and reflect on the theoretical foundations of educating English language
learners. Current educational practices and historical legal issues surrounding educating English language learners will be examined. The purpose
of the course is to prepare pre-service teachers for linguistically diverse classrooms while providing them with the foundations for Structured English
Immersion needed to meet the requirements for a provisional Structured English Immersion (SEI) endorsement. The course will cover the following

ENG 102 – First-Year Composition
Description: Critical reading and writing; emphasizes strategies of academic discourse. Research paper required.
Pre-requisites: Must have completed ENG 101 or 107 with a grade of C or greater
ENG 440 – Contemporary U.S. Literature
This course will examine contemporary US fiction produced since the 1980s, most of which has garnered literary prizes, entered the “canon” of
contemporary US literature or received much critical attention. As we read works by John Barth, Octavia Butler, Cormac McCarthy, Anna Castillo,
Louise Erdrich, and Jonathan F. Foer, we will focus on the reemergence of genre fiction (including speculative, thriller, and magical realist fiction)
and its relationship to theories of contemporary literature.
FMP 261 – Introduction to Screenwriting
Basic skills of screenwriting including exercises in conflict and resolution, plot points, and theories of three-act structure and design.
GCU 494 – Landscape, Place, and Memory
Place and landscape are cardinal concepts in cultural geography, referring both to what we sense and experience, and to diverse ways of knowing.
In this course we read and discuss humanistic, experiential, and critical theory accounts of place and landscape, and we explore the confluence of
geography and memory, raising a series of questions: How are landscape and place interlaced in life experiences and meanings? What is
remembered and inscribed in cultural landscapes? What is forgotten? How are place and landscape critical in terms of contested histories and
narratives? How is nostalgia potent in the making and remaking of place and landscape in the modern world? What are the implications for
creating places and landscapes that are meaningful and sustainable? In addition to reading key works we view and discuss films relating to
landscape, place, and memory. Students create three photo-essays during the course of the semester. The photo-essay prompts allow for differing
styles of visualization, writing and expression. There are no prerequisites for the course.
JMC 305 – Online Media
Description: Focuses on the Internet from the perspective of the journalist--the best way to tell a story using words, photos, video, and audio. Fee.

This course is intended for Honors and Scholar’s Academy students that are planning and/or implementing theses or creative projects, but is open
to all students. Course topics will include history of educational research, literature reviews, research methodology, resources, individual project
ideas and the creation of a research prospectus. Students may also work in teams to complete theses or projects if their interests intersect.
USL 216 Service Learning for Educators
This is a graded internship that allows students to integrate coursework with a hands-on service-learning experience.The central objective of this
course is to examine of the effects of social justice issues on student achievement. Internships working with high needs children will be utilized to
promote critical reflection to analyze community needs, the importance of civic engagement, and community issues affecting ethnic minorities and
marginalized populations in contemporary American society particularly how it applies to our education system. Students dedicate a minimum of 70
hours at a pre-approved site (including Title I K-12 schools, youth programs, health services, social services, etc.) directly serving high needs youth.
A weekly seminar, course readings, discussions, and reflection assignments facilitate critical thinking and a deeper understanding of cultural
diversity, citizenship, how to contribute to positive social change in our community, and how to utilize these practices in the teaching profession to
better serve all children. The course is also designed to provide “real-world” experiences that exercise academic skills and knowledge applicable to
each student’s program of study and career exploration working with children, youth and families.

Project Excellence Courses for Fall 2015
Through the program known as Project Excellence, Barrett juniors and seniors in good standing (at least 18 honors credits and 3.25 cumulative
GPA) have the extraordinary opportunity to take selected classes in ASU's Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law. Pre-law students and other
students interested in law should consider taking one of these classes.
You should be aware that if you participate in Project Excellence, you will be taking an actual law school course; in most cases law students will
form the large majority of each class. But past Project Excellence participants report that the professors in the law school are extremely free with
advice and assistance for Honors students.
Project Excellence Grading Policy
PE students are required to take graduate law courses on the same grading basis as the matriculated law students. This policy means that PE
students cannot take a course on a Pass/Not Pass basis where this option does not exist for law students. However, when grading PE students,
faculty will grade PE students separately from the law students, and the law school curve. All HON 494 Project Excellence classes for the Fall
2015 semester must be taken for a letter grade.

Fall 2015 Project Excellence Course Descriptions:
Biotechnology: Science, Law and Policy
This course will examine the legal, regulatory, scientific, policy and ethical aspects of biotechnology, focusing on genetically engineered plants,
animals, foods, drugs, vaccines, and other products. Among the issues to be covered include an overview of the scientific methods for genetically
26
engineering plants and animals, the risks and benefits of genetically modified (GM) crops and animals, the regulation of GM foods and other
products, labeling of biotechnology products, regulatory issues relating to biopharmaceuticals, liability issues, intellectual property issues, antitrust
and business law issues, contamination issues, the role of the public in GM decision, state and local regulation, international regulation,
international trade, bioprospecting/biopiracy, and bioterrorism.
Comparative Dispute Resolution
This course will explore processes in which third-parties from various countries and cultures help people resolve disputes. Through readings,
discussion, simulation exercises and outside research, students will critically examine the roles of lawyers and other advocates negotiating on
behalf of principals; mediators and neutral third parties facilitating the negotiation process; arbitrators, judges and clerics tasked with adjudicating
disputes; and tribal councils and international tribunals involved in managing conflict. Classes will be designed to give students the theoretical
framework to understand and evaluate dispute resolution processes in various contexts, as well as the skills to participate in the processes
effectively.
Election Law
This course reviews the key federal and Arizona constitutional provisions, statutes, and court decisions governing such topics as the expansion of
the franchise, presidential selection, redistricting, campaign finance reform, and direct democracy. Weekly lectures may include guest speakers who
have participated in federal and state campaigns.
Energy Law & Policy
This course examines laws relating to the ownership, conservation, and use of natural resources, with particular emphasis on energy-related
resources such as coal, petroleum, natural gas, hydroelectric power, sunlight, and wind. The course explores and analyzes laws that allocate
interests in energy resources and regulate energy production and delivery strategies so as to promote economic efficiency and mitigate adverse
impacts on the natural environment.
FDA Regulation
This course will examine the regulation of drugs, medical devices, and biologics (e.g., vaccines) by the Food and Drug Administration. These
categories of products are the primary products of the emerging biotechnology and genomics industry, as well as the traditional pharmaceutical
industry, and therefore is critical for students who are interested in representing life science companies or medical research institutions.
Federal Indian Law I
American Indian Nations own 27% of the land within Arizona. This course provides a survey of the political and legal relationship of Native Nations
to the United States government. The course provides a historical examination of the treaties and other instruments used to negotiate a political
relationship between these separate governments and delves into a comprehensive examination of the legal relationship that developed between
American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian peoples and the United States government. The emphasis of this course is on understanding
the foundation of the contemporary relationship between Native Nations, the United States government, and the various state governments. Thus,
particular attention is devoted to jurisdictional issues, including the framework for determining civil regulatory authority, and civil and criminal
adjudicatory authority in Indian Country. The course requires a final exam, or a student may choose to write a paper in lieu of the exam. The
professor must approve the topic selected.
27
First Amendment
This course on the First Amendment is based on a unique approach and materials developed by Prof. Vince Blasi at Columbia who has offered
such a course with great success at several law schools for about twenty years. The main text is Blasi’s Ideas of the First Amendment ( West,
Second Ed. 2012). Students wishing more information than is in this description should consult the text. The premise is to organize the course, as
Blasi puts it, “around leading thinkers rather than doctrinal topics.” Thus Blasi’s materials are organized around “seven of the most eloquent and
historically significant articulations of the reasons for a strong free speech principle.” These seven classic writings range from political polemics
(Milton and Madison), to philosophical essays (Mill and Meiklejohn), to “judicial opinions of unusual intellectual ambition and insight” (Hand, Holmes
and Brandeis).This juxtaposition of perspectives prepares students to broadly examine and critically evaluate traditional doctrinal categories of First
Amendment jurisprudence. And, as Blasi suggests, this approach also does better justice to the “majesty ...[and] complexity” of the First
Amendment than a more traditional course focused on “pragmatic judgments of small compass” that emerge “by connecting the dots of numerous
cases, presented in fragmentary form and organized according to problem area”. In the original Preface to his text, Blasi adds: “[I]t is the (more
original) thesis of this book that such [doctrinal] questions are best studied not by examining, necessarily at a breathless pace, snippets of vast
numbers of Supreme Court opinions that elaborate three- part tests and ever-proliferating doctrinal subcategories, but rather by engaging some of
the greatest writings on the freedom of speech that have been generated in the Anglo-American tradition, and asking how those writings - some
political polemics, some judicial opinions - might help one to think about the pivotal doctrinal questions.” Still, the course includes “most of the
leading Supreme Court opinions interpreting the First Amendment,” and “virtually all of the traditional doctrinal categories are covered.” Blasi has
refined his approach in the 2012 second edition of the text, which naturally is very up to date. The text, however, always will be supplemented as
appropriate with the very latest Supreme Court opinions in the area. Another great benefit of studying the First Amendment in this fashion is that
students will be forced to closely examine “how some of the finest practitioners of the art of persuasion went about building their arguments.” The
course therefore is also a superb course in legal advocacy and rhetoric. By reading and studying virtually unedited selections by great writers (“well
elaborated masterpieces of advocacy”), students should improve their own writing. Students often have difficulty “getting started” on a paper choosing an interesting and manageable topic, developing an appropriate thesis, and the like. So, to assist this process, in consultation with the
Instructor each student will be required to write an extended critique of one of the canonical writings (of the student’s choice) around which the
course is built and apply his or her critique to a doctrinal issue or case. Students wishing to earn an additional credit by writing a more substantial
paper may sign up for a related 1- credit Independent Study with Prof. Winer. Interested students should address any questions to Prof. Winer via email at [email protected].
Health Law and Policy
This course explores major aspects of U.S. health care law and policy, including national health care reform initiatives; access, costs, and quality of
care; informed consent; health information privacy; and professional licensure and liability. Additional topics are also examined depending on
national or regional trends leading up to and during the semester.
International Contracts
This course will explore the laws applicable to international contractual relations, focusing heavily on the United Nations Convention on Contracts
for the International Sale of Goods. Along the way, we will touch on a few other topics, such as choice of law rules, a comparison of selected UCC
sections with CISG provisions, and a comparison of the contract law of selected foreign nations with that in the United States, and --time permitting- a brief introduction to international commercial arbitration. The final grade will be based primarily on a final exam and secondarily on possible
periodic quizzes.
28
Law, Science & Technology
Nearly every field in the practice of law now involves some interaction between law and science and technology -- whether it be litigation,
administrative law, environmental law, constitutional law, telecommunications law, health law, corporate law, employment law, contract law, property
law and many others. Lawyers who are knowledgeable and comfortable in dealing with the scientific and technological aspects underlying many
legal issues are in great demand at law firms, companies, government agencies and other providers of legal services. This survey course is
intended to provide the student with an introduction to the various ways in which the legal system interacts with science and technology, and the
skills and knowledge necessary to address such issues. The course will examine the interactions and conflicts between law and science using a
series of illustrative case studies addressing current issues such as the internet, cloning, air pollution, the Daubert standard for admission of
scientific evidence, tobacco research, the Microsoft antitrust case, electric vehicles, digital copyright, genetically modified foods, nanotechnology,
anti-terrorism technology, global warming and privacy. No special background or expertise in science or technology is required to benefit from this
course. Students can elect to take a take-home exam or write a research paper (20-30 pp.) for the course. This course qualifies as a “core course”
for the LS&I Certificate program.
Private Property Rights
This course will focus upon one of the most controversial topics in the law and a subject which has received considerable attention from the United
States Supreme Court in recent years: the conflict between private property rights and the right of the government to acquire private property for
public use or to regulate the use of private property in a manner which substantially limits its economic potential. The course will include a detailed
review of the most important United States Supreme Court decisions (e.g., Penn Central, Nollan, Lucas, Dolan, Palazzolo,Tahoe and Lingle) which,
in the context of so-called "regulatory takings” disputes, explore the circumstances in which government action may go "too far" and constitute a
taking of private property without just compensation. The eminent domain process will also be discussed, including the United States Supreme
Court's recent decision in Kelo v. City of New London. In addition, a unique section of the course will utilize the land acquisition litigation arising from
the planning and construction of the Bank One Ballpark/Chase Field project (Phoenix, Arizona) as a case study. Pleadings from the appellate
proceedings will supplement course materials and will focus on the purposes for which private property may be condemned. The course instructor
was the principal trial and appellate attorney for the Maricopa County Stadium District. The course will also examine the nature and history of title
insurance and the role of title insurance in protecting private property rights. Unlike other courses which focus solely on a limited area of substantive
law or, alternatively, on procedural or evidentiary considerations, this innovative course explores all aspects of "takings" law from the evolution of
the substantive law through the tactics and strategies often employed at trial and in land use planning decisions. The format will be principally
lecture, with lively group discussion anticipated. The course is recommended for future trial attorneys (government and private), for prospective real
estate and land use lawyers, and for others with an academic interest in understanding the law and history behind the headlines.
Public Int'l Law
This course is an introduction to public international law, which is generally the law governing relations among states. Most fundamentally, the
course will explain how international law has developed, how modern international law is made, and how it is enforced. As a survey course, we will
also examine a variety of subjects regulated by international law, including among many others, how international disputes are resolved; the law of
the sea; state conduct during wars; international human rights law; and the activities of major international organizations and tribunals such as the
United Nations and the International Court of Justice.
29
Research Ethics and Law
This seminar is designed to give students a broad understanding of research ethics, regulation and law. In this course we explore a selection of
topics in research involving human subjects. We begin with a brief introduction to the basics of normative ethics, including theories of justice and
human rights and the foundations of the law covering research ethics, and then explore specific ethical and legal issues associated with biomedical
research.
Grading:
Paper: Forty (40) percent of the student’s grade will be based on a research paper on a topic of the student’s choice with instructor approval.
Students may elect to write their paper on or related to the topic of their in-class presentation (see below). Students should write a paper of 8-10
double-spaced pages. Final papers are due on December 3. All students should notify the instructors of their topic before October 5.
Class Presentation: Each student will select a case study to present in class. This presentation will count for twenty (20) percent of the grade. The
presentation will include: (i) identifying at least one week prior to the presentation one or more readings (<20 pages) on the case for the other
students; (ii) a presentation on the case study; and (iii) identifying 3-5 key questions the case presents and leading a class discussion on those
questions.
Midterm: A multiple-choice/short answer take-home midterm will count for thirty (30) percent of the grade. The midterm will be provided on October
12, and will be due by October 19.
Class Participation and Attendance: The remaining ten (10) percent of the grade will be based on class participation, other interactive
discussions via Blackboard, and attendance.
Research Methods in Int'l Law
This course will teach students how to research international and foreign law. As a course project, students will prepare a bibliography on an
international law topic of their choice.
Sports Law
Sports Law is a course that deals with the legal issues relating to the structure and operation of the sports industry. The course reviews various
principles applicable to sports including antitrust, labor, intellectual property, league policies, NCAA regulations, and general business operations.
Various other legal issues relating to professional and amateur sports will be covered.
Water Law
This course will address the basic legal principles involved in acquiring, maintaining, transferring, and adjudicating property rights in water. Some
attention will be paid to riparian (eastern) doctrines, but main emphasis will be placed on the prior appropriation systems common in the west. The
course will also cover groundwater law (with a focus on Arizona and doctrines in other western states), developments of new water supplies,
instream flow protection, interstate disputes and allocation (with focus on the Colorado River), federal and Indian water rights, and federal- state
relations in water management.
