Hello World. I'm a HUGE Starwars fan AND a HUGE Metal-head. ;)

1. Objective I propose to investigate the different college experiences from students who come from a different cultural, economic, and predominantly urban setting.
2. Interest: This is interesting because it will allow students in this class to experience college life from a different perspective and be more culturally in tune with other people. This is relevant because college is firstly a 'step-up' in education and secondly the ratio of non-whites attending college is considerably smaller to those from other cultures/backgrounds.
3. Background reading I will read wikipedia, text book and other basic sociology texts on the following topics:
1. I will also find scholarly research on the general issue of (for example, violence in video games). Posting links here.
2. I will find popular press discussions of my topic. Perhaps Wikipedia articles, blog entries, newspaper and magazine stories, etc.
4. General Plan I plan to. . .describe the major next steps to get the project done. If working in a team, specify the parts that you plan to do.
5. Collaborators: I will be working with Nadia Sheng.
