Process Analysis

We will be working on the process analysis paper (50 Points) during the week of March 26. The list below includes possible topics. Try not to pick a topic that you have already written about in another writing mode. I would like these essays to me no later than June 3rd. This will give me two days to get them graded and calculate whether or not you will be exempt from the exam. The sooner you get them to me...the better. We will be in the library on May 27, 28, & 29.
