This is an assignment where you will choose either a classmate, co-worker, or friend to interview and then write a 300-word essay.

The questions I have provided are merely suggestions; you may use some of them, all of them, modifications of them, or completely ignore them and come up with your own.

• Interview your subject by asking as many questions as you feel will work for the essay
• I do not need to see your notes or know what questions you asked
• Write a 300-word essay that details your findings

The point of this exercise is to practice the art of one-on-one interviewing and conversation while gathering useful information on your subject - qualitative research - and then relaying the information you have gathered to an audience.
