History & Culture of New Orleans
New Orleans is an American city unlike any other in the United States . Because of its location at the mouth of the Mississippi River , New Orleans became the most cosmopolitan city in the country in the late 1800s . As a result , the city became a culture unto itself through its Creole food , its language , and through its blend of cultural music that became Jazz . This course will explore the culture of New Orleans and what makes it unique through a study of food , music , architecture , Mardi Gras , and geography , as well as its dark side of the slave trade and red light district known as Storyville . This course consists of 12 hours of classroom instruction on campus and six days in New Orleans with tours , museums , a cooking demonstration , and many jazz venues . Additional fees for travel and accommodations apply to this course .
