Max Weber's Perspective on Social Stratification

Coursework Instructions:

Students will submit a short reflection essay on something new that they’ve learned in their preceding units, either from another student, from the text, or from class discussions.

While these are informal reflections, and so strict adherence to APA formatting not expected, students should cite and give credit to anyone whose thoughts or words influenced them, whether it is an article, textbook or website reference, or ideas expressed by the instructor or peers in Discussion.
