<p>Hi, Everyone:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We do have some new members this year, so it will be good to get to know each other better. Please respond to this discussion post and introduce yourself and tell us a little about YOU, i.e. what you teach, etc. That way, by the time we have our call in October, we will know each other a little better.</p>

We need to discuss the sub-categories that we will use for the Sociology collection of materials. During our phone call, one of the members of the Taskforce suggested we might want to use the chapters of the Introduction to Sociology textbook. Please share your thoughts here on what sub-categories we should include in the taxonomy.
