Honors Thesis Colloquium 2009-10

Connie, please read the 2 posts I have written to the group: the one to Larry and class on method and the one how to propose your main focus (posted Oct. 1).  In terms of your draft, what most needs to be done is to turn from arguing your position to proposing your research topic and saying how you will go about it. You do have some acknowledged counter-arguments in the course of your discussion but you need to flag them more clearly in terms of how you will address them.

In your last paragraph, you tell a history of American women’s lives prior to Betty Friedan’s publication, which is simply incorrect.  So look into that history more fully to see the more complex cycles of progress and set-back.
