Cooperating schools/departments include: Anthropology, Art History, Communication & Culture, Criminal Justice, School of Education, English, Folklore & Ethnomusicology, History, School of Journalism, School of Law, Philosophy, Political Science, Religious Studies, Sociology, Telecommunication, Theatre and Drama.
Added Faculty: Over 80 faculty in the American Studies Program are drawn from a wide range of cooperating departments within the university. An even larger group of faculty serve in an auxiliary fashion, offering courses in various aspects of American culture and experience.
