Dear colleagues, I have a very exciting opportunity for next year-- I get to teach a 200-level honors course on a topic of my choosing, and I get to teach a 400-level feminist philosophy topics course! I really want both courses to focus on issues about the family, but that's as specific as I've gotten right now. Some topics I'm thinking of including are: a discussion of care ethics, the construction of a "family" (the number of people, biological relations, etc); the choice to have children; what grown children owe their parents; the effects of having children on a the earning potential and career advancement of the parents. I know a lot of this is focused on children, but these are just ideas right now. If you would be willing to share your syllabus or syllabi if you've taught such a class or something similar, or if you have reading suggestions for the class, I'd love to hear your ideas! Please respond off-list to [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>. Thanks so much!
