In the spring of 2005 I enrolled as a student in the Library and Information Science Program. I continued to work on my Asan Studies degree, and managed to place into the Japanese third-year class as well.

Professor: Robert Huey -- Syllabus (PDF)
Description: A course designed to prepare students to write a major research paper in Asian Studies, though no paper is actually written in this course. The research process begins with an outline, moves through literature review and elementary research phases including the construction of an annotated bibliography. The course concludes with the presentation of the introduction, literature review, basic outline of the paper, tentative conclusion and bibliography - the student may choose to go on and write the paper, but in this class the process, rather than the product, is the focus.
