final project

for my final project i cam up with an idea. This one i believe i am going to stick to. The point that i am trying to come across for my project is that colleges should require their incoming frechmen girls to take a self defense class. So for my project I plan on having a picture with a girl kicking a guy in the groin. I want to possiblly steal the picture from the t-shirt i recieved at my self defense class and it hass a barvie kicking a ken doll in the groin. I want to do somthing with dolls like this because i feel more people will pay attention to it and it will make people a lot more interested. But then i am going to have her at a party, since that is were most assaults take place, and i want it to say somthing along the lines of has your college truley prepared you for life? but i feel that may be too long of a saying. However, i plan on making my project a poster to hang up around campuses so if anyone did want to look at it they were able to. But i am afraid that may be too long of a saying, especially, if people are walking by it so i might also do a flyer or even a magazine artile may work. But i plan on making a huge poster right now. I want it to come off as serious but i also want it to ber some what humerous where girls would actually look and pay attention to it and remember it.

Essay #4 idea

For my last essay i decided i wanted to write about why college girls should take a self defense class. Interest: I am very interested in this topic. I strongly believe that this is a VERY important subject. Brevity: To limit my subject matter i am going to attempt to keep it to college women and not just women in general. Information: There is a lot of informatio about this subject matter. I can look up and find information about college women and how they are assulted or somthing bad like that happens to them. Question: There a parts to my topic that can be seen as a double side. Like what is the point because a girl is not going to be able to remeber everything that should be done in certain cituations. However, you could say that it is worth at least having a plan.

Questions Ethnogrphers Ask

My subculture views outsiders in a good light. Outsiders are accepted and they do not seem to be worried about outsiders, they are more welcoming.
What motivates them are the children that they teach everyday and the children that they want to help and teach them to learn and thrive in school and in life. To teach and just do what they love is what also motivates them to go to work everyday.
The group gathers everyday at the elementary and high school in which they work at also you can break it down further and say that they gather at the classrooms that they keep.
The groups social hierarchy and how it is organized and maintained by a way of power. This would be like there is a principal and vice principal. Also there are the nurse, councilors and the office workers at the school, and of course there has to be the teachers.
For my subculture there is no form of initiation but there is the thing where the new teachers go through a sense of training and getting used to the school also there is the way that you can greet your new students and be ready for the new school year and all the preparation that that needs like training and just getting your room together.
