The IESJ would like to highlight a minor degree, currently open to SJNY Students.
The Labor, Class and Ethics minor (LCE) is intended to be an interdisciplinary experience for students wishing to deepen their understanding of the nature of work and social class. These are realities which affect us every day, and will continue to affect students as they enter the workforce full time. More generally, understanding political discourse in America, the factors behind a myriad of global conflicts, the forces giving rise to mass immigration and the resistance to mass immigration, the status of women in the workforce and in the household, the nature of childhood education, the shape of our cities, and even the way we use and consume everyday products depends deeply upon a prior understanding of what labor is, and what class is. Work, and the people that perform work, literally shape the world around us.
