Whitworth University U.S. Cultural Studies Minor
Whitworth's U.S. Cultural Studies Program acknowledges that many factors such as
race, ethnicity, national origin, socio-economics, gender, sexual orientation and type of
disability influence our lives and experiences in the United States. In one way or another,
others' perceptions of us or even our self-perceptions have been formed by these personal
characteristics and by the groups that are identified by these characteristics. Our goal is
to study these groups so that we can better understand these groups and our own lives in
the contemporary U.S.
Through this program of study, our goals are:
- to study the foundations and interactions of diverse groups living in the U.S.
- to develop intercultural competencies for graduate or professional schools and eventual vocations.
