This may not be as applicable in your area, but I'd want to see some stuff about households.
Actually, it's a very worthwhile idea to spend a few minutes on. Households aren't quite the hot-potato here that they are in some places, but they're a significant part of How Things Work, and the 201 class is probably a good place to talk about what they really mean.
I'm also thinking, a little something about the nature of fealty and chivalry (lowercase 'c').
Hmm. On the one hand, it's a very good topic. (Two very good topics, really.) OTOH, I think that both are probably too large to be in scope for this class. I mean, we traditionally have a "fealty thingy" once every year or three, which is an evening class/seminar/discussion just on the topic of fealty in the SCA. It's a pretty complex subject. That said, at least touching on the high points might be quite apt here. Thanks!
