I've been slammed at work all day, sorry for the delay. The last two weeks I am leaving open, the official syllabi will be updated ASAP.
"Due to the often upsetting nature of this course, I would like to spend this first class having you introduce yourselves, and share, if not why you are taking this course or your history with the subject matter, what you hope to learn here. Also, if there are any subjects that might be difficult for you, please feel free to stop by after class and let me know.
Homework: Find a working definition of violence that you feel is accurate.
Sociology of the Paranormal: 6th Period
Welcome to class. I'm Grissom,and it's getting late and I need a snack and I'm cranky. Consult the roster and take a syllabus, then take a seat.

8 Intro - Parascientific Beliefs
9 Review week
10 Law and Government
11 Education
12 The Media
13 TBA
14 TBA
15 Finals
"First of all, I want to thank you all for enrolling. Considering the subject of this course, and all of our different, and shared, experiences with the paranormal, I first want to stress that I expect everyone to keep an open mind, and be respectful of your fellow students.
That being said, I'd like to have you all introduce yourselves, and if you have any specific topics you'd like to have covered in this class, I'd like to hear your input. This class will have two parts: One in which we study the paranormal and build a working vocabulary, and the second half of the semester in which we evaluate how these events affect institutions.
You will not be graded today, but I would like to encourage discussion with your fellow classmates, as you will be working together closely for the next several months."
Homework: Readthis snazzy outline of How to Think About Weird Things for Wednesday.
Both Classes: "If you need to Add/Drop a Sociology course, or would like to apply for a TA position, those forms can be found outside my office. Please fill them out, and then submit them in the proper place. Thank you.
