If the names "Jacques Derrida" and "Paulie Walnuts" are equally meaningful to you, then the Sopranos Symposium is for you. Fordham University hosts a three-day postmortem of the seminal drama, where you can witness discussions of such academy-friendly topics as Ethnic Identities and the Italian Question and Family, Society, and the American Way. The weekend winds down with a Sopranos bus tour to New Jersey (gabbagool from the pork store not included). Revel in the dorkiness, but know this: if Paulie ever caught you dissecting a TV show, he'd ridicule you for your intellectualism.
