Subject: questions
To fellow Grad Students:

I was wondering if there was a way to find out how many people
are signed onto this listserv?  Every couple of days a new bio
appears, but there are only a few messages posted every day.
I don't know if people are leaving the list or if people don't have
the time to post anything,

Secondly, I've lost most of the earlier bio's that were sent to this
list.  Is there anyone who is keeping track of these earlier bio's?
If not, I don't think anyone would mind if people would like to
"reintroduce" themselves.

And finally, a question about sociology.  Here at CSU we have two
or three professors who are heavily into the "Marxist/conflict"
tradition of sociology.  I don't have a problem with that, but there
is a feeling among some of the students here that it might hurt your
grades if you disagree with this way of thinking.  We have one
professor who believes that any criticism of Marx is a product of
"ideology".  Does anyone else out there feel this pressure to
conform to a particular way of thinking?

To Danielle and Liz:

I haven't read that book, and it is checked out of our library.  I
have ordered it through ILL and will read it when it comes in.

P.S. Lisa D., would you post something already!

Thanks,
