I'm not talking about starlets, I'm talking about the movies we see the books we read, our media in general. I think we will begin to see more and more professors embracing this in their courses. I know I will if I chose to teach when I'm done with my MA before moving on to the PhD. In fact I hope to teach a class just on History and popular culture.

It was a 300 level course, I think called "Ancien Regime" maybe. Anyway, I never really figured out what the professor was looking for. Got a B.
