Social Justice Studies was created as an "Area of Emphasis" Associates Degree for Transfer (ADT). This ADT includes Programs in Cultural or Ethnic Studies and Women's Studies, and is designed to give students a broad background in the histories of various racial and ethnic groups, and the contemporary challenges faced by these groups in our society. Social Justice is the basic principle that all members of a society are entitled to equal rights and opportunities, and Social Justice Studies seeks to examine existing inequities, particularly as they relate to race, ethnicity, gender, and sexuality. The Social Justice Studies ADT in Chicano Studies is designed to transfer into the CSU system, and can be used as the foundation for a Bachelor's Degree in the following areas: American Studies, Chicana and Chicano or Mexican American Studies, and Comparative Ethnic Studies. To earn the Associate in Arts in Social Justice for Transfer students must complete at least 60 required semester units of CSU-transferable coursework, including the Cal-GETC requirements, and at least 18 units within the major. Students must maintain a minimum 2.0 GPA, including grades C (or 'P') or higher in each course taken to fulfill the major. Local graduation requirements are not required for the transfer degree. Students should consult with a counselor for more information on transfer requirements and university admission.


Upon completion of the program, students will:
  1. 1. Demonstrate academic preparedness for transfer to a four-year college.
  2. 2. Examine and appraise the intersections of race, class, gender, religion and other cultural indicators in issues of social justice in the United States.
  3. 3. Compare and contrast the primary goals of social justice movements of the 20th century and evaluate correlations to contemporary social justice movements.

  6. 6. Demonstrate a commitment to active citizenship, and develop leadership skills and an understanding of social justice principles and their application in order to promote positive social change in the Chicano-Latino community and the broader society.

Honors sections may also focus on a more in-depth study of a significant branch of philosophy, e.g., philosophy of race, gender, or global issues. (A, CSU, UC, Cal-GETC)

                                                            This course teaches culture and facilitates language acquisition through listening, speaking, reading and writing. Students will continue to interact with authentic language in context. Content is expanded beyond “survival” needs of the immediate environment in order to express personal meaning and to apply different strategies and techniques to go beyond casual conversation and express opinions, make suggestions on familiar topics, as well as some abstract issues and plans. Students demonstrate an increased awareness of cultural norms, values, and culturally relevant appropriate customs and events. Accuracy becomes quite high for high frequency structures and vocabulary, but more complex discourse is still developing and requires a somewhat sympathetic listener or reader. Students will demonstrate the ability to think critically by analyzing linguistic structures and reflecting on and making cross-cultural comparisons. This course will be taught in French.

The class engages in examination of theoretical approaches to politics, of fundamental problems that arise in political contexts, and of proposed solutions to those problems. Students will analyze the relevance of political theory to contemporary political problems. (A, CSU, UC, Cal-GETC)

Accuracy becomes quite high for high frequency structures and vocabulary, but more complex discourse is still developing and requires a somewhat sympathetic listener or reader.
