Professor Zaloom's NYU page, as an Associate Professor: http://anthropology.as.nyu.edu/object/CaitlinZaloom.html **note: I know for a fact that associate professors cannot be tenured. Professor Klinenberg's NYU page, as a Professor of Sociology; Director of Graduate Studies: http://as.nyu.edu/object/ericklinenberg.html He's even on Wikipedia! This guy must be kind of a big deal... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Klinenberg

**note: It isn't lost on me that Jen, the graduate student who came to help out our class, and was subsequently told to discriminate against me, via not calling on me in class and acting rude and condescending when she did, is from the sociology department where Eric is the director---how fascinating. All the best, Sara Ackerman
