The Certificate of Undergraduate Study (CUGS) in Multiethnic American Literatures offers non-majors the opportunity to study, in-depth, key texts and contexts of ethnic American literatures. Students will cultivate a critical awareness of the ways in which mutually constitutive categories of ethnicity, race, indigeneity, class, gender, and sexuality inform the evolution of African American, Asian American, Latino/a, and Native American literary canons.
