Eggheads Converge To Discuss 'Sopranos'TelevisionBy Associated Press More than 60 college professors from around the world will gather at Fordham University's Lincoln Center campus to analyze the HBO mob drama "The Sopranos." 
The symposium is called "The Sopranos: A Wake," and was created as a way to define the show's position in popular culture, according to event organizers. It will be held May 22-25 and will include sessions on gender, parenthood, ethnicity, and cuisine, all based on "Sopranos" episodes. Fordham communications and media studies department chairman Paul Levinson says "The Sopranos" is one of the most significant TV series ever produced, and is worth studying. The HBO show ended last June after six seasons, many murders, and even more Emmy awards.
