Academic folks still on here, I need help. I will be teaching a graduate seminar Public Opinion and Communication next semester. If you taught a class like this, and are open to it, please send me your syllabi. Share if you can so I can hear from people I don't follow. Thanks!

Catherine O'Hara is brilliant in so many shows and movies, but I haven't seen anyone mention her guest spot on Curb Your Enthusiasm yet. She's responsible for one of the very funniest moments in the history of the show.
