Your final assignment asks you to:
Choose a particular location in Austin (a park, building, street, a location where a significant event occurred or one tied to a larger issue in our city)
Do historical and sociological research on this topic
Your prospectus is due on Nov. 26th - be prepared to explain what you want to write about, what you might argue and what the literature says about your topic.
Notes:
- Allow the literature to steer your research - start broad, but use what you are seeing in the research to help you narrow your topic.
