Task: We'll begin class with notes on the upper class and social mobility. Then, you'll read an editorial on the upper class before we discuss "The US Upper Class." We'll use the remainder of class to explore social class in America with resources on the Moodle.
- TODAY - Article discussion for "The US Upper Class"
- Thursday, May 2 - Article discussion for "The Uses of Global Poverty"
- Tuesday, May 7 - "Songs of Stratification" due
The "official list" of the upper class: The Social Register
Audio slideshow: Rich on Nantucket
Article: Old Nantucket Warily Meets the New
News clip: American Versailles: Temple to Excess? (Note: This is not the "old money" upper class we discussed in class.)
