When I took sociology courses, specifically an anthropology course about the representations of black men, I used a combination of methods, including surveys, talking to my director of multicultural affairs, and reading through archived articles in my campus newspaper.

Plus, the assignment was last month.
Hi Rashid!

I don't think that she will get a wide variety of responses (or any response, for that matter, but I might be wrong) on such a controversial subject. I figured it's better to get an official, quotable response from an officer or representative of KA than a random post from an unknown brother or alumnus on GC.

I used similar methods of research for my political science and sociology classes as you outlined. I don't think that a message board is a credible research tool or source of information, but Alexander Robbins does so maybe I'm wrong.

Plus, since the assignment was last month, I guess it doesn't really matter, lol.
