Critical Social Inquiry 0318 - Writing With Power

This Division III seminar will be organized around students' Division III Independent Study Projects. Students will be responsible for presenting their Division IIIs in progress several times during the semester and for providing serious, thoughtful written feedback on one another's work. We will also address general and shared issues of conducting research, formulating clear and persuasive analysis, and presenting results both orally and in writing. The primary purpose of the seminar is to provide a supportive and stimulating intellectual community during the Division III process. Students from a variety of fields within CSI are welcome; students conducting ethnographic work are especially encouraged to enroll.
