Apply your knowledge of course material to a short examination of womens activism on the local level.  Additional research may be necessary but integration of course material is essential.  Select a subject born any time between the mid-1930s and the early 1950s, preferably someone who became involved in academic, political or community issues.  Interview her/him using the guidelines we develop.  You may want to consider faculty or staff members if necessary. Use the opportunity to compare national and regional trends, to focus on significant or emerging issues, to test theories and to assess social messages.  Include a one-sentence statement of your thesis in the introduction, include bibliography and footnotes using Chicago Manual of Style
