Introduction to Sociocultural Anthropology
Requirements

Students are expected to attend all classes, do the readings, and ask questions and discuss the implications of the issues in the classroom. Lectures will not duplicate the readings, but will provide the theoretical background, context, and critique of the topics in the readings. Films will be shown regularly throughout the course and are an important component of the course. Students are expected to complete the assigned readings as scheduled on the syllabus. There will be one final essay examination worth 35%. There will be one short paper, on a particular cultural or social phenomenon worth 25%. Throughout the term, there will be five response papers (no more than two pages); submission of response papers will be 10% of the grade. Students will also conduct a fieldwork project and report, on a topic to be discussed with the instructor. The fieldwork project will count for 20% of the grade. Class participation will count for the remaining 10% of the final grade.

While students working with each other outside of class is highly encouraged, all graded, written work must be your own and pledged accordingly. All work is subject to the Davidson College Honor Code as stated in the student handbook. If there are individual accommodations for special needs, please let me know and authorize the Dean of Students to contact me so that we can work something out.
