It s no secret that fun is important to American college
students, but it is unusual for scholars to pay attention to how
undergraduates represent and reflect on their partying. Linguist
and anthropologist Chaise LaDousa explores the visual
manifestations of collegiate fun in a Midwestern college town where
house signs on off-campus student residences are a focal point of
college culture. With names like Boot 'N Rally, The Plantation, and
Crib of the Rib, house signs reproduce consequential categories of
gender, sexuality, race, and faith in a medium students say is
benign. Through his analysis of house signs and what students say
about them, LaDousa introduces the reader to key concepts and
approaches in cultural analysis."
