Intro to 21st Century American Culture - Monday - Period 5

Lorelai, of course, has a very large mug of coffee in her hands as her students file in. She smiles at them brightly and waits until they've all taken their seats before beginning to speak.

"Good afternoon!" she greets. "I'm Lorelai Gilmore-Danes. I realize that's a mouthful and I have no problem with any of you calling me Lorelai. If you're not comfortable with that I'll answer to Ms. Gilmore or Ms. Danes, but you definitely don't need to use the whole thing, okay?"

She put her mug down passed out papers to each student. "This is your syllabus. It's more of a guide than it is set in stone, so it may change after we talk today."

After passing out the papers, she sat on the edge of her desk and picked up her mug again. "Now, I'm guessing most of you are from other times and places. I'll best be able to help you if you tell me where and when you're from and what you want to learn from this class."

Luke nodded. "I'm beginning to want to change my name," he muttered.

"Do what I do," Bel said with a smirk. "Go by one name."

"Drop the last name and just go by Luke?" Bel suggested. "Probably too late for that now, though."

Luke nodded. "I'm starting to get 'Anakin's Luke?' questions, now."

"We all got things we gotta live down," Bel said, patting Luke on the back.

"I don't mind," Luke began, "but I don't want it to be my only characteristic."
