From 1831-1836, Charles Darwin circumnavigated the globe aboard the HMS Beagle.

The ideas presented in that volume remain the foundation of all modern biological thought. Drawing upon original source materials and the instructor’s photos, this course will present the historical and cultural context of Darwin’s era, follow the five-year journey, discuss how Darwin came to his ideas, and explain his theories in detail.

Signature Rocks is the first systematic study of the surviving "signatures" inscribed by the emigrants, as they called themselves, on both the famous and not so famous rock formations that line the overland trails through Indian Country from the Missouri River to the Pacific from the 1830s to 1869. Once numbering in the hundreds of thousands, only several thousand have survived. Following the overland crossing, we read these inscriptions--an unrecognized and vanishing American archive--in light of a number of motivations to signing culled from the over two thousand emigrant journals and other accounts that have come down to us. The result is a new understanding of this completely overlooked aspect of one of the most iconic episodes in the history of the United States.

Nearly 40 years ago, a covert and illegal operation to supply arms to a Central American insurgency and to Iran during its war with Iraq exploded into global headlines. The Reagan administration launched a cover-up to shield the president, who had been deeply involved in directing these policies. He narrowly avoided impeachment and left office quietly. This course traces the affair from its origins to its controversial conclusion six years later, when another president—himself implicated—pardoned the conspirators.
