Funny you should ask that. The term "blackbox" has to do with an idea being deemed as true or fact. For instance, the concept that the world is round has been blackboxed. The object of this class was to analyze how and why these concepts became blackboxed through a series of readings and projects.

The greatest thing about this class is that it gives it's students free-reign to do as they please and study what they want. Where else can you have a conversation with a blackboard, criticize the U.S. media, and discover the secrets of Scientology in one tiny semester?
