STS 490 (Issues in Science, Tech, and Society) is offering a unique class in 2021 Spring regarding scientific observations of the paranormal: Science, Psi, Sasquatch, & Spirits. 
The junior standing PREREQUISITE IS WAIVED for this section.
Course description:
Gallup polls show 3/4 of Americans hold at least one paranormal belief, so why doesn’t science take paranormal investigation seriously? In this course, you’ll examine the best evidence for unusual phenomena, meet investigators using science to hunt ghosts, Bigfoot, and powers of the mind, and engage in your own scientific research. By thinking and doing, you’ll develop how to conduct scientific inquiry and situate scientific thinking within society. What you discover may surprise you.
