Emory students are in for a new version of sociology — Taylor’s version.

The university’s Oxford College launched a new course in its fall semester based on the career of Grammy Award-winning singer Taylor Swift.

According to Emory, “Sociology: Taylor’s Version,” plans to “examine social processes, identities and institutions through Taylor Swift’s reputation” and analyze the various stages of the music star’s career.
