Mini-lecture 1

The first in our ongoing series of mini-lectures has been posted!  We've decided to call the series 'So, that's a thing...', and the first topic is taxation in America.  All these lectures will be posted on Vimeo, and the password for each will be the same - apushlasa.

These lectures are designed to be a very brief overview of certain topics in the course that we would like you to have some command of as we move forward.  Also, at some point, groups of terms from the 'So that's a thing...' series will pop up on terms lists.

We hope you find these useful, and we will continue to post them over the course of the year.

So, that's a thing... Taxes!

Welcome to APUSH!!

It's a new year at LASA, and it's time to get started with APUSH!  Ms. Pettigrew and I will be excited to welcome all of you over the next few days, and I know we're all going to have a great year.  Also, since 2016 is an election year, we'll be able to have a lot of fun following the 'invisible primary' season this fall and the actual primaries starting in January.

Over the course of the year, please refer to this site for information about the course, announcements, handouts, and the all-important calendar (helpfully embedded right at the top of this page).

I hope you've all had an exciting summer, and that you're ready to get started with another fun year at LASA tomorrow.  See you then.
