Hello

Hello Students,

This is how we are going to talk to each other outside of class.

At the top of this page you see a button to create your own blog. Go there and follow the instructions.

The trick is to make the name of your blog fit with this one. In the place where it asks you to paste in the URL of the blog you are setting up just type millsapsemailname.

Get it? make a URL out of the words "Millsaps" and the unique part of your email address. That way we can all access each other's blogs really easily.

You will probably also want to run a spell check on your items before you post them (as I forgot to do with this one).

There is a link section on the website where you can put up links to sites that you think are interesting. I would enjoy seeing what sites you think are worth reading (even if they aren't connected to politics). I'll try to put up some links too.

If you read this before Monday, here is something to think about. LGS appear to argue that the primary motivations of the Founders were economic. Do you believe that? More importantly, what kind of evidence would persuade you one way or the other?
