I loved it, but somehow got distracted and never wound up taking any more. My one venture into the anthro department as an undergrad was an unmitigated failure, though--or rather, an unmitigated D! I got really fed up with the pace of the class & the fucking Trobriand Islanders, so I stopped going and spent those hours with the fiddle instead. But if we'd been reading this kind of stuff I'd probably have changed majors. Oh, well. Better late than never!Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01815494575119528277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7294743887544399032.post-5369194453506947432007-02-01T11:59:00.000-05:002007-02-01T11:59:00.000-05:00Dang, girl, you just now figuring this out??

Sadly, I had to take plain ol' general linguistics in undergrad instead. Still a cool class, but the focus was entirely different.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
