The faculty have worked on the course for the past three years and it was recently added to the curriculum as a general education requirement. Bryan Carter Assistant Professor, English, Co-Founder, Africana Studies. Central Missouri State University, Warrensburg, MO Delia C. Gillis Associate Professor, Coordinator, Program in Africana Studies, Department of History & Anthropology, Central Missouri State University, Warrensburg, MO Musa IIu Assistant Professor, Department ofSo~iology, Central Missouri State University, Warrensburg, MO Yvonne Johnson Professor, Department of History, Coordinator, Women Studies, Central Missouri State University, Warrensburg, MO Reverend Albion Mends Adjunct Instructor, Africana Studies and the Center for Religious Studies, Central Missouri State University, Warrensburg, MO C.DianneMack Associate Professor, Music, Central Missouri State University, Warrensburg, MO Regina Tenney Assistant Professor, Department of Sociology and Social Work, Central Missouri State University, Warrensburg, MO In the fall of 2002, Central Missouri State University approved a minor program in Africana Studies. This momentous occasion marked a period of nearly 50 years in which the institution had struggled with issues of race, ethnicity, and an inclusive curriculum. While the university quietly desegregated in the summer of 1954, access, retention, and opportunity often remained illusive for faculty and students. As early as 1969, the first course in African American history was taught every other year. Over the next three decades courses in African American literature, African History, the African Diaspora Jazz, African American women and other related topics had been taught or added to the curriculum. Yet, no comprehensive program existed until the late 1990s when a group of faculty pushed for change aided by a review team visit from the National Council of Black Studies. Under the leadership of Drs. Bryan Carter & Dr. Yvonne Johnson, but amid state budget cuts, CMSU approved the minor with no funding or faculty reallocation. The Department of History and Anthropology agreed to serve as the discipline home. Again, a few dedicated faculty came forward to offer their time and expertise. With a teaching load of 4-4 for CMSU faculty, the Africana Studies steering committee decided to teamteach the course to get the program started and to prevent anyone faculty from carrying an academic overload without pay. Necessity proved to be the mother of invention. In three years, the Introduction to Africana Studies course has become a model for team and interdisciplinary teaching on its campus. The work of the Africana Studies faculty also resulted in the Introduction to Africana Studies courses being added to the General Education requirement in the area of cultural interaction during summer 2004. Faculty from six disciplines (literature, history, religion, music, sociology, and social work) will discuss the pros and cons of team-teaching and course development. They will explain syllabus development, their different teaching styles and assessment strategies. For example, the course has utilized service learning and distance learning during various offerings. Faculty will offer insight on lessons learned and offer suggestions on the future direction of the course and the place of Africana Studies in the millennium. The tackle the thorny issues of increasing student enrollment as well as hot to sustain the course as multiple sections are added. Besides the different academic disciplines represented, the core faculty are diverse in race, ethnicity, nationality, gender and generation. Furthermore, the panel will discuss the symbiotic relationship that the faculty have developed in their teaching, research, and student interaction. This session responds to the conference theme by addressing how access, achievement and opportunity have been created through their innovative pedagogy and their persistent effort to create a curriculum inspired by the architects of the landmark Brown decision.
