Welcome to my new WEB course in cultural anthropology. I say new because I have just moved it from a straight, web based offering to one embedded in the Angel platform. Angel...Oh Boy!...hahhah

I am very excited about our work together. I hope that you will be patient as we resolve application and design bugs. I have tried to envision all contingencies, but undoubtedly I have missed some detail(s). In any event, if things start to go haywire, don't get worried, just communicate with me and we will develop some kind of work-around. A very important safety precaution for you to take is to set your email program so that it automatically keeps/sends you a copy of all out going email.

The goals of the course, and therefore, my goals for you, are: (1) to provide you with a comprehensive overview of cultural anthropology and (2) to have you examine and interpret aspects of human culture from the perspective of anthropology.

Anthropology 103 will transfer to all Illinois state universities. If you will be transferring the course to a university or college other than these, you will want to talk to their admissions people. To the best of my knowledge, we have never had a problem transferring this course. Period. However, be a wise consumer and check with the school you will be transferring to before you enroll. We want to guarantee no unpleasant surprises.

I think that our semester together will provide pleasant and invigorating experiences.
