Hello everybody!

Welcome back! This week is for learning the ropes and getting organized. Please browse this course site--start at the Modules page and read the "Course Tools" section on the Modules pages carefully so you understand how we'll be working the rest of the semester. I'm still finalizing some details on the seven course modules, but you'll see how each module contains the readings and assignments for a two-week period.

For this week, you are assigned a 50-minute movie called Straightlaced that will get us thinking about gender and gender identity and how it influences us as young adults. It's a fun watch and I encourage you to watch it with friends or family. You will have to login to the library in order to watch. After you're done, please post your intro to the Week 0 Discussion thread along with a quick thought about the film.

Otherwise, we'll see you Monday/Tuesday for our first zoomclass!

p.s. There are two sections to this class, section 81 meeting Mondays and section 80 meeting Tuesdays. So pardon the awkward use of "see you Mon/Tues", okay?
