Action Plan Presentation

Few days ago my classmates and i presented to everyone what our topic is and what our action plan was. Many of the other students topic were interesting. Presenting our topic was a good thing. it helped me to see and understand more what other people are doing and what i need to get done. It also gave some ideas for instance part of my action plan was interviewing a professor from University Of Pittsburgh and then one of the students advice that maybe interviewing a police officer would be helpful too since my project has to do with police racial profiling. We have also already turned in our writing proposal.
