HIS 102
Extra Credit Special Project
Paper Assignment
The two little girls pictured here, Eva and Leana Munzer,
perished in the Holocaust (Auschwitz, February 1944). There is some more
about their story, from Alfred Munzer, scattered on the website of the US Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington,
DC. Better yet, please visit the museum at least once in your
life.
I will also accept as a special project
- a My Family and History paper that requires you to examine your family's history in light of the historical events of the past half century. Point value is 50 points possible extra credit for a two-page paper (less for one page). Please note that this paper requires you to email both your course instructor and Professor Evans, cevans@nvcc.edu.
- a Pop Culture paper in which you look at some aspects of the growing spread of pop culture throughout the world. Point value is 50 points possible extra credit for a two-page paper (less for one page).

Please take a moment to review Charlie's History Writing Center for specific information on the writing requirements for the assignments in the course. Please check this short explanation of what it means to cite historical evidence.
Your assignment should be submitted on Canvas.
