Returning to campus after a long and relaxing break can be challenging. If you find that you are feeling fatigued, withdrawn, or isolated and/or are noticing a change in sleeping patterns, you may be suffering from a common mood disorder like depression.<br>
<br>
It's important to know that if you or a friend are experiencing these symptoms, you are not alone. 31% of college students report feeling some level of depression during their second semester and The Ohio State University at Marion has resources and staff to
help. Feel free to call or email Leslie Beary in the Office of Counseling and Wellness to set up an appointment to talk at 740-725-6349 or

<span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">Venice is known for its canals. The Florence Duomo and Pisas Leaning Tower show that architectural icons come in many shapes and sizes. The Principality of Monaco is all about glitz,
with its palace and casino, while Paris reveals itself in many ways, from the Tuileries gardens to the cafes on the Champs-Elysees.

<em><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Dr. Sara Crosby / 3 credits / TR 11-12:20</span></em><br>
Coastal Louisiana is a strange place—home to sexy vampires, Voodoo, and so-called “swamp people,” as well as jazz, petroleum, and gumbo. But because of foolish river and marsh management, south Louisiana is literally disappearing into the Gulf of Mexico, with
the fastest rate of land loss anywhere in the world. Now is the time to experience it before it’s gone. In this capstone course, you will immerse yourself in Louisiana literature and culture: from Swamp Thing comics to Cajun ghost stories and jokes. You will
learn how to cook a real gumbo (and why it’s made that way) and you will explore everything from New Orleans music and politics to Blue Dog art and reality TV.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

In this course, we will examine the major approaches to moral development including psychoanalytic, cognitive-developmental, and socialization theories. Through discussion of primary source material, we will examine, compare, and contrast major theories and
consider the research methods and findings associated with each approach. The primary focus will be on psychological approaches, but we will also consider philosophical issues and educational applications.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Have you heard the news? We're living in the Anthropocene. This means that humans are now the dominant force influencing the Earth's topography, ecosystems, and climate. How did we get here? How do we impact the environment? And how does the environment influence
our behavior? What does "nature" really mean? In a time of environmental change, how can we realize our best possible future?

We are excited to offer both General Genetics and Molecular Genetics Laboratory for the first time at Ohio State at Marion. In MolGen 4500 we will examine major topics in genetics that include transmission genetics, molecular genetics, population genetics and
evolution, and recombinant DNA and genomics. In MolGen 4501 we will use yeast to do hands on experiments on two major topics in molecular genetics, transmission genetics and recombinant DNA technology. MolGen 4500 is a prerequisite/co-requisite for MolGen4501.
You are strongly encouraged to enroll in both classes in the same semester as the laboratory exercises are designed to complement the lectures in MolGen 4500.

<em><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Dr. Luzmila Camacho-Platero / 3 credits / TR 1:30-2:50</span></em><br>
In the last century, the Spanish speaking world experienced dramatic changes, social conflicts, and revolutions, while various societies evolved into diverse democracies. In this course, we will study representative cultural examples of some of the most significant
social developments in Spain and Latin America through literature and film. By deciphering the art of telling stories with words and images we will learn about the Spanish Civil War, the Cuban revolution, the racial tapestry of Latin America, the experiences
of minority communities, and in general about the triumphs and failures of these societies.
