The four parts of our presentation are taking shape. They are:
1) Mina Shaughnessy, her character, a woman of contrasts (Karen)
2) Mina Shaughnessy and the Open Admissions Movement at CCNY (Sok)
3) Mina Shaughnessy’s legacy for teachers (Nick)
4) Mina Shaughnessy author interview, photographs, possibly audio (Maria)
Each presentation should be 8 to 10 minutes long, to be followed by questions. We are also asked to prepare a two-page flyer to hand out to classmates.
We should meet at least once before our presentation, which is now on our last class day, December 16. We said we would decide at our next class, December 2. It looked like Karen, Nick, and Maria had time to meet on Thursday December 4 mid-day. Can we all have a first draft of our presentation to make to each other on that day?
Jane Maher is having trouble finding the audiotape of the Mina Shaughnessy interview. She wrote this morning to say she may have given it to her son-in-law to make a copy. She’ll ask him on Thanksgiving.
