Strangers, Presentation of Self, Private and Public Spaces
This week in Intro to Soc we have been discussing Georg Simmel's "The Stranger".
We've also been discussing the tenets of Erving Goffman's Dramaturgical Analysis.
I was pleasantly surprised....wait, THRILLED when Ricky Lax sent me an article from the Las Vegas Weekly about a little "experiment" he conducted at the Town Square.
Too funny!

A Five Year Old Learns the Alphabet
Discussion in our Introduction to Sociology class today centered around symbols and the social construction of language.
What you see below is the effort of a five year old kindergardener concentrating diligently on constructing her letters. Not too far to follow is linking these symbols to construct words. Understanding their meaning will begin to occur over the next few months as well.
