Overall, this unit gave many of us the chance to glimpse at individual study and research furthermore it allowed us to present our perspectives and questions on our chosen topic. However, like any other project we all face challenges, for me it was selecting fitting citations to my criteria as many other papers on my topic were too radical in their stand point. After my paper was done I was surprised as to how these ideas on my topic came about to be. In my opinion this unit prepared us to do more individual study.

Class Meetings & Times: Mondays & Wednesdays, 2-3:40 PM, in Namm 519
Office Hours: Tuesdays and Thursdays, 12 – 1 PM. I’ll be available through Zoom and will send an invitation via email that you should keep all semester. Try to join my meeting at the start of the hour, not at the end—since I may be talking to other students or have another appointment after the hour is up. If those times don’t work with your schedule, we can schedule a different time. This means you’ll have to schedule an appointment in advance via email. I suggest you have multiple times in mind, since your schedule may not mesh with mine!
