4 cr. 444. Building a Culture of Peace Peace is more than just
the absence of war. A culture of peace incorporates respect and
dignity for all persons, stewardship of natural resources, a
striving toward justice and equality, the non-violent resolution
of conflicts, non-hierarchical decision-making and participatory
community life. Students in this course will explore the origins
and concepts of peace culture. Students will experience the
elements of a culture of peace as they are empowered to create a
peace culture within the classroom and as they share peace
culture with a broader community through service learning
projects. 4 cr. 490.
