For Monday, Jan. 12

Monday audio. Review Assessments and Syllabus; questions in the first few minutes of Monday's class.

I wanted to draw attention to all the laws in the wave of 1960s/1970s Civil Rights legislation as well as in the post-1980s modern period. We did not discuss all of them in class. In addition to what is mentioned in the reading, note also Title IX of the 1972 Act (extending the laws prohibiting federal funds recipients (such as universities) from discriminating because of sex) and the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), enacted in 1993.

For Monday, prep §§ 2.01-2.02, along with Lindke (replacing the discussion on p.30).
