First, Tom Boellstorff has syllabi on Culture in Virtual Worlds and Culture Power Cyberspace on his department website. You’ve read the ethnography, now vicariously take the course!

I believe it's unethical when on the job market, institutions ask candidates to supply syllabi which they can basically use to improve their courses without remunerating the person (who's unemployed or underemployed and looking for a job). However, once someone has a tenure-track position, speaking for myself at least I think it's part of our public duty to make our syllabi free for all. I will be teaching my "Culture, Power, Cyberspace" in the 2009-2010 academic year and will post the new syllabus in a few months!
