One-Minute Talk Revised
My name is Ashley. Before this class I didn't know what anthropology was. I surely didn't think it was important because I avoided it. I made my LC choice by making sure my block didn't have anthropology in it. The first day of class, I still didn't understand anthropology. The class introduction left me intrigued but puzzled. Then, the first reading assignment cleared things up. I learned a lot about culture. My favorite concept in this course was gender. Perhaps it was because I had a group presentation on that chapter but I just really enjoyed it. I never heard of matriarchical socities. The enthnography in the other book was also interesting. The society described, where there were no fathers, was alien to me.

Thx for all you said, all you didn't say and for being true to all that. You contributed to the class in ways I am clear you are not present to, but when you pop let me know. You really were a contribution to our conversations. You spoke up a lot more than I think you recall. So thanks for all you did and all you don't even know you did to make this class what it was for us all.
