My name is Lisa, and I am a student at the University of Pittsburgh. This page is for my sociology practicum course, Social Change in the US. I am majoring in public relations and sociology, and this is my last semester of undergraduate work. After graduation, I intend to work in New York City as a publicist. I am originally from Murrysville, Pennsylvania. I currently live in Shadyside with my cat, Sally Jessy Raphael. This past summer, I lived in London, England, where I interned at Wild UK, a music promotions company.
This is my first edit of my Wikipedia page.
I thought that the first two chapters of the textbook were very interesting; however, I had a little bit of trouble understanding some of the ideas. Also, I had trouble figuring out some of the answers to the questions, especially the last question.
Today I tried to take a bus to go to class at noon, but the bus did not come, so I did not make it to class.
I found the Moghadam reading to be especially interesting, as it focused on the professionalization of women.
In respect to the Sklair reading, I agree most with the Global Culture approach to globalization. I feel that the world is becoming increasingly Westernized.
