“St. Lucy’s Home for Girls Raised by Wolves” by Karen Russell is a story about a group of girls that suffer from lycanthropic culture shock. This causes the girls to believe they are wolves because they are raised by wolves. The girls are sent to a school, St. Lucy’s Home for Girls, where nuns will teach the group of girls how to be human. They would be taught human traits, the human culture, and human habits in an attempt to eradicate any wolf culture in them. Out of the first three stages of the shift from wolf to human, the third stage shows a massive amount of character development in the girls. In the first two stages, the group of girls are just beginning to figure out what they have to do. In Stage 1, the girls were wreaking havoc on their new home and the school grounds when they “tore through the austere rooms” and also “supplemented these holes by digging their own [sic]” (page 237, 238).

Regardless of being disoriented, “the advanced girls could already alternate between two speeds, ‘slouch’ and ‘amble’” (page 240). All of the girls but Mirabella were bipedal. Mirabella, the narrator’s sister, is the youngest and does not seem to be changing from her wolf self. The story states that “the pack was worried about Mirabella” and “the nuns were worried about…

Before taking SGST 200 class, I had a very narrow view of sexualities and gender’s problems, but I was fine with that for such a long time. Even when I decide to take this class, I wasn’t expecting to change or have a whole new view of problems like racism, sexism, and homophobia. In SGST200, I learned that there is nothing wrong with being different from others, we should be proud of ourselves and be respectful to others. We can’t change the biological diversity; everyone is different since…

CORE 200 class has a focus on Christian Faith, I never imagined, I would get the opportunity to learn about Islam. I have been exposed, nor taken the liberty to explore Islam and see what Muslim’s believe. Going to the Masque was by far the thing; I was most excited for on the Detroit trip. The Islamic experience did not disappoint. In the short hour and a half our group spent in the Masque I was exposed to new experiences, and many eye opening moments. Detroit has a stereotype of having only…
