Students in Leslie Cintron's Spring Term class will write a research paper on a topic associated with "connections between work and family."
Here is the still-in-progress research guide.
Mark Rush is working with several students in the Spring Term on research papers in this subject area. He wanted them to have a common research guide as a starting point.
Sascha Goluboff has 7 students registered for this Spring Term seminar. Written assignments include an analysis of a biography or autobiography of a terrorist or victim.
Here is the research guide. Professor Goluboff is very concerned that students focus their reading on the anthropology literature, as opposed to all the other stuff out there on terrorism and violence.
I have been working with a Sociology student on her independent study project, one which has involved finding lots of information on Jewish life in the U.S.
Today's question involves finding numbers on Jewish intermarriage -- by sect/observance level (reform, conservative, etc.) It's this latter qualification that is causing problems.
The best source of numbers appears to be the North American Jewish Data Bank, which is so useful that I have created a Web site database page for it.
