Hello everybody,

My name is Joe Pentangelo, and I’m your instructor for Sociology of Language at the College of Staten Island.

The first day of classes for CSI is tomorrow, January 29th. Since our class meets Fridays, this is also the first day for our class.

We’ll be meeting over Zoom at 2:30pm on Friday, January 29th (tomorrow). The Zoom link is

You can also enter by using meeting ID 554 539 7081 and the password “linguist” (without the quotation marks). We’ll be using the same Zoom link and credentials throughout the semester.

We’ll be going over the syllabus, talking about course expectations, and having a discussion about sociolinguistics – what it is, and why it matters.

If you have any questions, please contact me at joseph.pentangelo@gmail.com.

Looking forward to seeing you all soon!

Joe
