About this Course

College students in the United States are approximately 10-fold more likely than the US population at large to be positively diagnosed as having HIV, with specific ethnic and demographic groups disproportionately affected. This course provides a detailed examination of the HIV/AIDS epidemic from a social justice perspective as we discuss care of the whole person (cura personalis) for those afflicted and most at-risk of contracting HIV/AIDS.
