Three quick notes about fall IUN registration:

1) Bob Mucci's fall Language and Culture/Sociolinguistics course has been
closed to student registration almost all summer due to a glitch in the new
registration computer system.  It has now been reopened and students can finally
register for it:
Description: L200/L300 LANGUAGE AND CULTURE / CULTURE AND LANGUAGE (Also
cross-listed as Sociology S431 Sociolinguistics) An introduction to the
anthropological study of language in its cultural context. Topics covered
include: the origin and evolution of language; the biological bases of language;
language in other animals; the origins of writing and its effects on spoken
language; sociolinguistics and gender; correlates of language; the relationship
between language and mind; paralanguage, proxemics, kinesics; descriptive and
structural linguistics; discourse analysis and deconstructionism; prescriptive
and descriptive grammars; glottochronology and language change; and the
evolution of linguistic study. The course is based not on a textbook but on
Steven Pinker's NY Times best seller The Language Instinct, and other selected
readings. Seminar/discussion format.  Instructor:  Bob Mucci

3) Warning:  If a student does not withdraw by 5:00 p.m. on September 3, 2004,
he/she will be financially responsible for fall semester fees. There will be no
wash out of classes for the fall semester.  That means if you do not attend, you
still have to pay!
