Welcome to SOC 101-1, Introduction to Sociology,  for the Summer 2008 quarter at Lake Tahoe Community College, taught by Dr. Scott A. Lukas. Please note: we will NOT use ETUDES in this class.

For the first week, you should: * sign-up for the Yahoo litserv, * sign-up for Turnitin.com, * get the course textbook and begin reading it, * complete all assignments for the week, * e-mail me if you have any questions. Welcome to the class and I hope that you will enjoy it!
