ABOUT THIS BLOG

I shall post videos, graphs, news stories, and other material there. We shall use some of this material in class, and you may review the rest at your convenience. You will all receive invitations to post to the blog. (Please let me know if you do not get such an invitation.) I encourage you to use the blog in these ways:
To post questions or comments about the readings before we discuss them in class;
To follow up on class discussions with additional comments or questions.
To post relevant news items or videos.

There are only two major limitations: no coarse language, and no derogatory comments about people at the Claremont Colleges.

The Stories Behind the Visitors in the State of the Union Galleries

The Washington Post had an article today about the "Skutnik Guests" at the State of the Union. Interesting to see an article about something we had just talked about in class.

During tonight's State of the Union Address, Obama's Skutnik Guest was Daniel Hernandez Jr., the intern who rushed to administer first aid to Rep. Giffords after she was shot in Tucson. Coincidentally, his birthday is today.
