Hello Phase I Students! :-)

Welcome to The American Culture Blog  #1

Yesterday in class, we talked about many different movie genres. For example, as we discussed, "The Lost Boys" is a horror movie. Please use the comment box to tell us what your favorite movie genre is, and why. Also, what is your least favorite movie genre and why?

I look forward to reading your comments.

Welcome!

Welcome, everyone, to the American Culture Spring 2011 Class Blog!

Alan and I will use this site to post important information, announcements, and fun things related to our classes. You will use this site to post homework assignments, continue class discussions, reflect on the movies we watch, and comment on information your classmates have posted. Together we will make this site a collection of our thoughts, feelings, questions, comments, musings, reflections, and rants about anything and everything related to American culture.

We are especially excited that you will be able to share information and ideas about movies (and American culture) with classmates from both Phase I and Phase II.

Please remember to check this blog regularly (at least once a day), and to stay tuned for important announcements in class about some of your first homework assignments.

Any questions? Please let me know!
