SEC 1
You must include in the notebook a list of available local (Alabama-Georgia area) cultural events taking place during the semester you are enrolled in the class. The purpose of this assignment is to discover the cultural opportunities available to people who live in the College service area. A minimum listing would include the name of the event, a brief description of the type of event, the date, time and place (city and location). See examples and a sample form later in this module.
The events list should include only events which are available in the Alabama/Georgia area within the term of the semester. The events list should include the events which you actually attend, but you are not required to attend all of the events on the list. The Grade Determination page located in this module will show the number of events that you are required to list and the number that you are required to attend based on the grade you wish to earn in this course.
1. Include only cultural events. All events must be related to one of the following arts: architecture, art, dance, theatre, film, literature, music, photography, poetry, sculpture.
2. Note specifically the type of event and the time, date, and place of each event.
3. Please number the events.
4. These events are usually advertised well in advance, so regularly check newspapers. Other sources include the Internet, the local chamber of commerce, community theater groups, and local libraries.

Section II – Event Reports (Directions)
Event Reports—You must also include in the notebook a written report describing each event which you actually attended. Print the Event Report Form located in this module to record your work. Please number your reports.
Here are some suggestions for types of events.
1. You may attend concerts–choir, orchestra, band, choral or instrumental. (Not Acceptable: bands/musicians appearing in nightclubs or elementary, junior-high school programs or church programs.)
2. You may attend lectures or discussion groups on any humanities-related subject. Community theater groups and local libraries are good sources.
3. You may attend art or photography exhibits. (Not acceptable: arts and crafts festivals. Note that visiting an art gallery or museum counts as one event even if there is more than one exhibit at the gallery or museum.)
4. You may attend plays and recitals. (Not acceptable: elementary, junior-high school programs or church programs.)
5. You may attend poetry or book readings.
6. You may visit art museums. Each visit to a museum counts as one event, even if you see more than one exhibit at the museum. You may re-visit a museum only if a new exhibit is displayed after your first visit, or another type of cultural art activity is taking place at the same museum on a different date.
7. You may watch two (HUM 101) films, which must be of some artistic merit. Some possibilities include Broadway musicals, movies based on Shakespearean plays or famous literary works.
8. You may visit one class in a humanities subject (art, music, theater, dance, etc.) with pre-approval of the class instructor. You may not use a class session for a course in which you are enrolled.
9. You may visit one history museum.
UNACCEPTABLE EVENTS
Not to be included as events: Arts and crafts shows, parades, elementary- junior high-high school programs, sporting events; events which are not related to architecture, art, dance, drama, film, literature, music, photography, poetry, or sculpture.
The following types of musical concerts are not to be included as events: bands playing in nightclubs, fraternity or sorority activities.
No athletic or charity events are accepted. Generally, church activities are not accepted.
*Remember to ask yourself this question: Is the event related to architecture, art, dance, drama, film, literature, music, photography, poetry, or sculpture? If it is not, then it is probably not acceptable to satisfy the requirements of this course.
Some places that do NOT qualify as events for the Humanities courses:
1. Commercial photographers and frame shops such as Fotos Unlimited, Tawana’s Frame Shop, Flip-Flop Photo, Mulberry Tree, The Villager
2. Antique malls such as West Point Gallery and Antiques and Crafts Unlimited Mall in Warm Springs, Ga., Angel’s Antiques in Opelika
3. Sports museums, science museums, and aquariums are not acceptable for credit.
4. On-line events from websites do not qualify; you must attend events.
LRC/Library Assignments – Another required part of the notebook is a written report describing each LRC/Library assignment which you complete. Assignments include reading books, journals, or periodicals and viewing instructional videos at SUSCC’s campus learning centers/libraries or through SU’s LRC materials online.
Complete an LRC/Library Assignment Report Form for each assignment. Print the Assignment Report Form in this module to record your work. Use as many pages as needed. You should number your reports.
1. You may read humanities-related material–books, magazines, articles. (A minimum of 10 pages is required for each LRC/Library Assignment.) Each book chapter that you read will count as one assignment, providing that it consists of at least ten pages of text. You may read as many chapters from the same book as you like to count as different assignments. You may not count the Business Week article as an LRC/Library Assignment.
2. You may view instructional videos from the resource list located in the LRC. Instructional videos are not the same as movies.
Section III
