The Fourth Dimension: Art and the Fictions of Hyperspace, Emergency Care of Injuries and Illness, and European Cinema Today are just a few examples of the courses students can sign up for. One class, titled Heaven and Hell, questions the existence of an afterlife by comparing scientific opinion to Christian and other religious sentiments. “Students have an emotional attachment to ideas of life after death and their perceptions are shaped by what they want it to look like,” says Randall Styers, professor of religious studies. Instead of poring over dusty religious texts, Styers designed the class around art, films, multi- media and other interactive ele- ments. In fact, interaction seems to be the general theme of Maymester. Many other courses emphasize the use of films in their descrip- tions and many even include field trips, some out of state. “We watch films and read for two weeks and then go down to Charleston for four days,” said RedefineTravel.org Heather Williams, professor of the Maymester class Slavery and Place: The South Carolina Case. is here to rescue you.
