Asked my Contemporary Art students to name some significant historical events that marked the 1960s, among Woodstock and Civil Rights I got the Great Depression and Disco. Mea culpa, I asked for it. #professorproblems
Things some senior history majors don't know:
Who gave the 'I Have A Dream' speech
Who wrote the Dec of Independence
What is in the 1st Amend to the US Constitution
What was Napoleon's last battle
What Rosa Parks is famous for
Which countries were allied with France in WW1
I provided my students with a sample of the short research paper they have to write for me. One student, thinking I wouldn't notice, put her name on the sample paper and turned it in.
