Welcome!

Welcome to our class blog (writing that as enthusiastically as I did just added 10 years to my age)! Here, we're going to collect the images, icons, motifs, etc related to the Wild West that we come across in our texts for this semester. A couple guidelines for posting here:

1. Everyone is required to post at least 5 times a semester. More and I will consider it extra credit.
2. Your post should be a good sized paragraph or two that maintains the same analytic rigor and specificity we strive for in class.
3. Make sure you use the labels for your post so that we can organize these findings along thematic lines; this will come in handy as a research tool as you write your papers and want to reference particular elements we've discussed here and in class.
