Fall Semester 2025

Dear students,

Welcome to a brand-new semester! I’m so glad to have each of you join this journey where we’ll explore how music shapes, reflects, and inspires social change across cultures and generations.

This course is more than just notes and rhythms—we’ll dive into real stories, community movements, and powerful voices that have challenged injustice and brought people together. Whether you’re already a music lover or just curious, you’ll find something here that speaks to your heart and your mind.

What to Expect:

  • Engaging class discussions

  • Inspiring listening assignments

  • Group projects that connect art to action

  • And yes… a few surprises along the way! 🎤🎷🎧

Bring your open mind, your voice, and your questions. I can’t wait to learn and grow with you this semester!

Warmly,
Prof. Veronica Kim
