What was the name of your Senior paper/thesis/project?
Eight years later, I would still like to get "The Road to World War I: The Zimmermann Telegram" published.

4. Seriously?
"Gay and Lesbian Teens and Available Social Services" - a look at how government programs, charity services and gay groups handled gay youth in crisis. I didn't start out thinking "failure" but I ended up believing it.


Khash.

7. Senior Undergraduate Thesis....
Wow, that was so long ago I cannot recall the title (1985), but it was about the gold rush in 1970s Brazil and how the Brazilian government used a variation of the Strategic Hamlet concept from the Vietnam War to secure the area, but in reverse.

Now my doctoral dissertation was entitled The Power of the Idea versus the Force of Arms: An Anatomy of the Underground Army in Poland (1939-44) and How to Take the Fight to the Enemy When They Outnumber You.

8. 1991 undergrad thesis
Liberation Theology and Pentacostalism in Rural Mexico: A Cultural Approach

yuk. My school was backwards in that they made any student who took mostly archaeology courses write a cultural thesis and vice versa to ensure a well rounded anthropologist

11. "Phoenetics and the enduring popularity of Shakespeare"
The hypothesis was that the particular phoenetic speech patterns of the characters, rather than just what they said, defined their motives and actions to a point that even today's audiences could understand what they were on about, despite sometimes not understanding all the words.

12. The Causes of Western Civilization
something like the infamous tests one of our profs gave which had essay questions like "The Christian Religion: Explain."

My actual senior paper was on "Performative Utterances in British Linguistic Philosophical Analysis"
I leant it to some imbecile a few years later and he lost it. I could still write it but who cares?

13. my other thesis option had a much better name:
"Shazbot, I've Broken Out in Words: Preserving the House of Mork and Mindy"

If anybody wants to use this, go ahead, it's yours. Just think of me every now and then.
