Culture and Modernity


Explanation:
In naming a course "Cultura y actualidad", I feel like the university wanted to avoid being too broad. Do you feel like a course named "Culture and Modernity" is more concise and/or academic than "Culture and Current Events"?

There is some precedent for using the noun modernity as a subject of study.
