I was talking a first-year down from the ledge about a paper they were working on last night and one of them said I was gonna make a really good teacher and my heart grew three sizes in that moment.
you should've encouraged them to post a link to it on the boards and get some REAL feedback
I'm pretty proud of that five minutes spent on the toilet. Hit pretty much every jargony thing I could think of. Was fun coming up with a theorist and trying to come up with the one word I remember from all their non-sense I had to read.
Fun game (in the RJ "fun game" sense) for strick and tk to see how many jargons you can recognize. PhDeac, you read any of this stuff? Or just like Durkheim and his posse? I included Turner (on whom I wrote my MA) and Bourdieu and Foucault. They seem relevant to sociology.
Thank God my anthropology degree required me to take a theory course (which was horrible, am I right, HTTD), because in grad school everyone just expected us to already know this shit.
My wife is an anthropologist and we occasionally argue over who gets to claim Bourdieu. I feel like he's cited in everything in sociology nowadays. I just sent a paper out last week that cites him. I also feel like there are people who are really into Bourdieu and get mad if you miscite or misappropriate his work.
i'm gonna post more brooklyn nine-nine videos if you all don't stop it this instant
RSF and ITC trying to Other anyone who reads critical theory in this thread
