ENGL 1A (Stevenson)

Research Project: Part One

Part one of your task is to find background information on a career or a hobby.  The first two (or more) paragraphs will provide general information about your career, job, or hobby. It will provide the history, describe what the career, job or hobby entails (or what rules or laws are involved), and what the current status or popularity of the career, job, hobby is.
