Weekend Reminder

Team Soc,
This weekend you will not have the usual Forum or Soc Observe. Rather you are to between now and Tuesday evening, either individually or with a partner, observe at a restaurant. The instructions for the Observing Culture Project are located on Drive.
Also, keep in mind what we talked (ok, you did the talking) about in class today. How do you evaluate a culture or some practice you read or hear about? Do you do so from your own culture's perspective (ethnocentrism), from the culture from whence it comes (cultural relativism), or from some tertium quid? Can you evaluate a culture from a position fair position?
