Week 7 Response

I have decided to include interviewing in my research. I can get better and more detailed information about everybody within the club. This will also aid me in getting more diverse information about everybody in the group including, women and the many minorities within the club. I do need more research for this specific topic because as of right now I dont have any information that has to do with interviewing or insider views. I do need to spend more time with my community just to make sure I can get enough interviewing in. I plan on spending my extra time with my community interviewing and more observing just to get a little bit more information and insight about my group. I plan on interviewing some people within the group to get their views and opinions, and that is how I plan on finishing up this assignment.

i think interviewing is a valid point in the ethnography. It gives you their perspective on their own community or subculture. That is what a lot of my research is really. The other night I pulled an all nighter in the studio and did some observations. I did not see you in there, and its a shame I brought double cheeseburgers and mcchickens for everyone. Anyway, I'm nervous on presenting all my information. Because so much of my information is interviews and observations I feel as if it is less professional, but my sibculture is specifically BSU architecture students, and there was minimal information on BSU architecture, and not that much on architecture students/programs across the nation. There is however, a movie coming out in 2009 called "Archiculture," but it was originally going to be called "Architorture." I believe its a documentary following 5 or so final year architecture students.
