Love delicious food? Ever wanted to learn more about the theory and practice of cooking food from other cultures? In this class, we will take an intensive look at the cuisine and culture of southern India. The class will involve both discussion of Indian culture & food and hands-on experience cooking (and eating!) Indian dishes.

Join us for a discussion of the written word-- literally, how we write. In the first part of the class, we'll discuss a brief history of the forms of the alphabet (focusing on the Roman alphabet, though we may take a look at other forms of writing like Cyrillic or Arabic) before moving on to a discussion of typesetting and typography in printed books and on the computer. In the last part of the class, we'll give a short introduction to modern forms of calligraphy and everyone will get a chance to try it!
