values
A new semester at UIC starts tomorrow, so I've been busy this week putting together a syllabus and a course packet. My course this time around is about how values differ among subcultures, and so I've spent a lot of time over the past few days digging around in the Jargon File / New Hacker's Dictionary as well as this hip-hop dictionary. I've also been skimming the Savage Love archives in search of bits of advice that illustrate Dan Savage's ethos but which don't use words like "cocksucker." (I'll be contrasting him against Dear Abby and "The Ethicist" from The New York Times Magazine—should be an interesting day.)
Also, if anyone knows of a good feminist critique of the scientific method, feel free to drop me a line to let me know about it. I'm considering using Donna Haraway or Sandra Harding, but something a bit more introductory might work better with my students. Labels: subcultures, teaching |
