Earlier versions of this paper were presented at the annual meetings of the Midwest Sociological Society (2007) and the American Sociological Association (2008). We thank the special issue editors and the anonymous reviewers for their comments and feedback; the article is much improved as a result of their efforts. We dedicate this article to Carla Howery; no one has done more to enhance the teaching of sociology.
