One of Rice’s newest classes, Miss Americana: The Evolution and Lyrics of Taylor Swift, has the Swifties coming out in full force to examine and discuss the lyrics and societal impact of the singer/songwriter.

Taught by Katherine Jeng, a junior at Hanszen College studying English and social policy analysis, the class focuses on Swift’s music, alongside considerations of her public discourse, and explores the nuances of her lyrics.

Using a chronological approach, Miss Americana will dissect each one of her 10 albums. It will consider a broad range of topics including femininity and gender; social media and public opinion; politics and social impact; fiction and nonfiction; American nationalism and whiteness; and family and feuds.
