Apply by submitting a CV/Resume and letter of application here. ASACS meets biquarterly on Fridays from 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm in the Dean's Office (CMU 065). Regular attendance is required. By serving on ASACS, graduate and undergraduate students have the opportunity to regularly interact with Dean Harris and hear from and raise concerns to other decision makers within the College and University. This service opportunity allows graduate students to learn more about how a large, R1 university functions and how projects are implemented across the college. ASACS members become familiarized with the college budget and discuss the impacts of financial instruments including extramural grants, endowments, tuition dollars, start-up funding, and TAships. Furthermore, ASACS members provide feedback on teaching and evaluation, classroom technology, and campus facilities. Other topics might include reimagining the humanities both as a profession and area, and discussions about the role of the public University. Finally, ASACS approves course fees for classes within the college. By having a direct line to the Dean, graduate students are able to bring the concerns and the perspective unique to their division and subject area. Service on ASACS also provides graduate students an opportunity to gain transferable job market and non-academic skills, including budgeting and working within an administrative bureaucracy. This institutional knowledge will assist graduate students in academic careers by providing them a foundation for how budgeting works and how centralized (administrative) change occurs. Please send any questions to uwasacs@gmail.com. Applications are due May 21st at 11:59pm. We hope to see your application! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Keep in mind that Autumn is months away. There are going to be some changes between now and the start of the quarter. We have marked the changes about which we know on the Time Schedule/MyPlan, in the notes for classes, as well as on this list of courses. Also, I have sent a couple of emails previously about asking for add codes for Autumn 2025 Junior and Senior Seminars. I have included the email below, which has the descriptions of the seminars and instructions about how to ask for an add code (or a spot on the waiting list). If you intend to take a seminar in Autumn 2025, don't wait for your registration date! Take care of this as soon as possible, since so many of the add codes are already distributed. Sincerely, Mark and Tracy Mark Weitzenkamp and Tracy Maschman Morrissey History Undergraduate Advising University of Washington Smith Hall 315 Box 353560 Seattle, WA 98195 vm: 206.543.5691 fax: 206.543.9451 depts.washington.edu/history Please click here to schedule an advising appointment! [outlook.office365.com] [follow us on social media] From: Histmaj > on behalf of HISTORY UNDERGRADUATE ADVISORS via Histmaj > Sent: Wednesday, April 30, 2025 8:34:12 AM To: histmaj@uw.edu > Subject: [Histmaj] Reminder: Now is the Time to Ask for Add Codes for Junior and Senior Seminars in Autumn 2025 Historians- Hopefully your Spring quarter is nicely settled in, but it is already time to think about Autumn registration for History Junior Seminars and Senior Seminars. If you intend to take a History Junior or Senior Seminar, now is the time to ask for an add code for the course you would like to take! I know that both Tracy and I have said to almost every new major that you need to plan ahead to get an add code for these class, since they fill up so quickly. Now is the time! Here are descriptions (below) from the faculty of each Junior and Senior Seminar offered in Autumn 2025 to help you make registration choices. The full Autumn Time Schedule has been released, but you should assume that there will be changes in the five months before the quarter actually starts. For example, HSTRY 388 C does not currently have a topic or instructor, so please don't ask for an add code for that until you hear what it is. We recommend students have completed at least two 300-400 level History courses before taking HSTRY 388. Students need to have taken HSTRY 388 before they are eligible to register in HSTRY 494 or 498. If you want to add one of these courses, email the History Advising address (histadv@uw.edu) to be given an add code or to be put on the waiting list. Please remember to give clear information about which section you want to add, and also include your name and UW student number. These classes fill VERY quickly, so request your add codes sooner than later. Junior Seminars: HSTRY 388 A TOPIC: Black Histories in the Pacific Northwest SLN: 16526 TTh 130-320 Prof. Travis Wright This seminar introduces students to the practice of history through the study of Black life, culture, and activism in the Pacific Northwest. Often overlooked in national narratives, Black communities in PNW states have long confronted exclusion, displacement, and racial violence-while also building institutions, leading labor and civil rights struggles, and reshaping the cultural and political life of the region. Through primary sources, oral histories, scholarly texts, and public history projects, students will explore the rich and complex histories of Black life and resistance in the Pacific Northwest. The course emphasizes key historical skills, including source analysis, critical reading, writing, and research while also encouraging students to consider the dynamic relationship between race, place, and historical memory. *** HSTRY 388 B TOPIC: American Social Movements Since 1900: From Woman Suffrage to Black Lives Matter to White Nationalism SLN: 16527 MW 1230-220pm Prof. James Gregory Social movements are a key feature of American politics. Certain social movements have been highly influential, reshaping ideas and political life, achieving major changes in law and policy, in some cases rearranging rules of race, gender, and economy. Others have been much less effective. This course explores the dynamics and the history of social movements of many kinds seeking to understand how they work and how they achieve influence. Moving chronologically, we will explore Woman Suffrage movements in the early decades of the 20th century, the labor radicalism of the Industrial Workers of the World, the Ku Klux Klan in the 1920s, unemployed movements in the 1930s, civil rights movements from the 1950s-1970s, ending with two recent social movements: the Black Lives Matter movement and right-wing populism/white nationalism. ************************** Seniors Seminars HSTRY 494 A TOPIC: History and Memory SLN: 16530 M 230-420pm Prof. Elena Campbell This seminar will focus on the problem of collective memory as viewed from the perspective of its social, political and cultural functions, as well as its institutional and cultural expressions. We shall explore the process by which societies construct and make sense of their past through the examination of different forms of commemoration (celebrations, monuments, museums, archives). Special attention will be paid to the relationship between memory and national identity. The case studies will focus on Russia and will be analyzed in comparison with examples from other countries. Finally, we shall discuss the analytical potential of the concept of social memory for historians and other scholars. This is a Writing credit course. *** HSTRY 494 B TOPIC: The Roaring Twenties SLN: 23199 W 1030-1220 Prof. Margaret O'Mara Flappers, jazz, bootleggers, Prohibition, motor cars and movie stars - and the KKK, xenophobia, real estate bubbles, devastating floods, and hard times on the farm. This seminar explores the roaring and consequential decade of the 1920s in the United States, which not only was a pivot point in modern American history but left a long shadow on the decades that followed. We will read scholarly and contemporaneous sources (both fiction and nonfiction) that explore many dimensions of American life in the 1920s, with the goal of deepening our understanding of the decade beyond pop-culture representations and understand the critical role this moment played in the formation of modern politics, art, and culture. This is a Writing (W) credit course. *** HSTRY 498 B TOPIC: Medieval Outlaws SLN: 16534 T 130-320pm Prof. Charity Urbanski The purpose of this course is to introduce undergraduate students to the transition from being consumers of history to producers of history. It will emphasize critical reading and analysis of primary and secondary literature, the theoretical and methodological problems of historical research, and involve students in doing original primary research. Its focus is on the process of historical reading, research, and writing. Our theme is medieval outlaws. While our primary sources are mainly literary works, we will be concerned with determining what these legends and the mythology of the outlaw can tell us about social organization, values, and the limits of legal systems in medieval Europe. We will also address the changing legal status of the outlaw, as well as the evolution and historical context of outlaw legends. This is a Writing credit course.

We now have an excellent new class for that in Autumn 2025. Gender and Sexuality in Medieval Europe, taught by Prof. Charity Urbanski HSTAM/GWSS 343 A MW 130-320pm https://history.washington.edu/courses/2025/autumn/hstam/343/a The Middle Ages played a critical role in the construction of modern Western gender and sexual identities, as well as our conception of love and romance. This course explores medieval European conceptions of gender and sexuality through the close reading of primary sources, including Christian religious texts, legal texts, medical treatises, histories, and a variety of literary genres. Topics will include normative Christian views of gender (both masculinity and femininity) and sexuality, as well as forms of gender expression and sexuality that the Church condemned and attempted to police, legislative efforts to enforce gender and sexual norms, medieval understandings of non-binary and intersex bodies, and ideas about love and marriage.

I find myself asking this question over and over: when is a 400-level class not a 400-level class? Sometimes, when it's a UW Drama class. We have four classes in the fall that are open to ALL levels of students, and do not require any prerequisite or previous theater experience: Drama 441: Beginning Playwriting. Calling all storytellers! Taught by artist-scholar and oral historian Professor Nikki Yeboah. (TTh 11:30 - 1:20) Drama 455: Alexander Technique. This is an excellent class for anyone who moves, and especially for dancers, actors, musicians and athletes. (WF 9:30 - 11:20) (The Drama-majors only restriction will be removed today.) Drama 456: Theatre for Youth. Taught by Myra Platt, co-founder of Book-It Repertory Theatre. This course is designed for the person who is curious, has a passion for or wants to learn more about theater, the arts, education and/or seeking to strengthen public speaking and business relationship skills. (TTh 11:30 - 1:20) Drama 490B: Voice for the Actor. Vocal training for actors, and for those who speak for a living. "Our voice potential is boundless, transparent, revealing, the connective thread to thought, emotion, sound, and the spoken word." (MW 11:30 - 1:20) If students have any questions about these classes, I'll be happy to chat with them.
