I asked everyone to submit their proposed topic a couple weeks back and I'm still plowing through them. One problem I'm finding is that very few people are actually giving me a simple, clearly defined topic. I'm getting a lot of general restatements of the broad issue I asked you to look at. I'm trying to help everyone out individually, which is taking some time. It might be a few more days before I get comments back if you haven't already heard from me.
Very likely I will ask this question again for the week 8 assignment so you can get a clearly defined, specific direction to head down. Once you do, the project should be relatively easy to finish .
