Classes and Contact and Bryn Mawr, Oh My!
A Project Proposal
Introduction
In this proposal, we explain the purpose of the project and give all necessary definitions and history. We will then delineate our timeline and explain our plan of action. Afterwards, we include important questions we must consider for the purpose of our project, and finally, we summarize everything in our conclusion.
Bryn Mawr College’s Local Organic Food Consumption
Motivations:
After watching Blackfish, we were curious about the extent to which our exploitation of animals for entertainment is affecting the environment and the economy, and how this in turn shaped our identity. By tampering with other species and their natural habitats, we are causing the endangerment of species which can affect entire ecosystems. This brings up the question of the interspecies contact zone, and whether we are justified in tampering with it.
The Message of a Museum:
Continuing to Silence Stories of Violence in the Colonial Past

Ayesha Islam: Muslims at Bryn Mawr
For our six week project, we will analyze how exchange through free boxes and the “For Sale or Free!” Facebook page at Bryn Mawr College as well as the clothing and appearances of Bryn Mawr students play into direct and indirect contacts within Bryn Mawr and beyond. This project will be largely separated between us but we will relate the two parts through the flow of clothing in and out of Bryn Mawr and the contacts that result.
