Don't forget to post your introduction if you haven't already done so. I've enjoyed learning more about each of you. You are truly a diverse group and I'm excited to hear your thoughts about the readings in this course--I think we'll have a wide range of perspectives.
As I said in class today, I'm from Virginia--Stafford, to be exact--but I've lived in Chapel Hill/Carrboro for 8 years now. I spend a lot of time cooped up in my carrel in Davis Library writing my dissertation, but I try to get outside as much as possible. Bolinwood Trail is one of my favorites. I'm also a Lost junkie--I can't believe there are only a couple episodes left! And I'm really enjoying the retro movies at the Varsity.
