Her husband, rapper Jay-Z, has already been honoured with a Georgetown University sociology course named after him, but now it’s Beyonce’s turn to be dissected in a classroom.
Rutgers University’s Department of Women’s and Gender Studies will soon be exploring the social and cultural significance of the Destiny’s Child singer’s music and image.
The course, ‘Politicizing Beyonce’, will allow fans and pop-culture vultures to explore the 30-year-old Single Ladies singer’s alter ego Sasha Fierce, and debate the extent of control she has over her own image.
In charge of the course is Rutgers PH.D. candidate Kevin Allred, who explained the importance of the course on the university’s website.
‘This isn’t a course about Beyonce’s political engagement or how many times she performed during President Obama’s inauguration weekend,’ he said.
‘She certainly pushes boundaries. While other artists are simply releasing music, she’s creating a grand narrative around her life, her career, and her persona.’
so funny when you asked .. what did you study; you would say Beyonce...lol
