Proposal
You need to choose 3 of them and fill it out directly onto the attached proposal word doc. You have to write 100 words for each one and explain how it will be useful for my essay. You will also need to form an essay question that will be used for my future essay- once you complete this proposal, then I will have you complete the major essay :).
