Queen B now has a college course named after her.
The Department of Women’s and Gender Studies at Rutgers University in New Jersey is now offering a course called “Politicizing Beyonce.”
In the class, students analyze Beyonce’s videos and lyrics along with readings from black feminists to think more critically about the way they consume media.
Según el profesor de la clase, Kevin Allred, quien también es un doctoral student, él usa Beyonce’s career as a model for exploring race, gender and sexual politics in the United States.
Y no es la primera vez que the university uses a celebrity as a model for teaching.
También existe a course that examines the theology of Bruce Springsteen’s lyrics, según the Associated Press.
Music stars such as Lady Gaga, Madonna and Beyonce’s hubby, Jay-Z have also been the main focuses of university courses throughout the country.
