OCRE 2000 - Risk, Resilience& Climbing

Institution:

Weber State University

Subject:

Description:

This course will explore the intersections of rock climbing, interpersonal and intrapersonal growth, and women and gender studies. We will ignite conversations about safety, trust, risk taking, transcending fear, resiliency, and healthy community building. These conversations will be embodied through practical kinesthetic climbing skills. We will also look at power and privilege in the climbing world and ways in which we can expand the field to be more inclusive, intersectional, and accessible to people from a variety of backgrounds. We will look at climbers who are changing the field, as well as engage media that tackle these and further topics.This course will be cross-listed between Women, Gender & Queer Studies (WGS 2000) and Outdoor & Community Recreation Education (OCRE 2000).This course will begin Spring 2025, but that is not an option in the "Beginning Year" field immediately below, so 2024 has been selected instead.
