Hello Reader,
You have stumbled upon Jenny Zhang's research project, "Looking into the Immigration Laws of the United States of America." If you are curious about the researcher, please read the "about" section to your right. If you are curious about this research project, please read my project proposal post. I will be interning for the next three months at a law office, as well as doing individual research at the library. The end product will consist of a presentation and a paper.
A short synopsis of what you are about to discover:
As you read and follow my blog, you will learn about the things I will learn through my law internship and research. Together we will learn about the immigration laws of the United States of America, the history of immigration, and it's impact on our society. Eventually we will be able to come up with a proposition that will improve the immigration laws of the U.S. So sit back, get comfortable, and get ready to explore one of the fundamental building blocks of America!

Jenny, I liked your proposal, but is the lawyer that you will intern with a specialist in immigration law? Also, can you make time to do hands on research in the Law Library at ASU's Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law? Working with a 'real' law librarian in their databases and reference materials (like a set of AZ Codes) might be eye-opening (instead of just on-line research. Also, I applaud you on the beautiful MLA format of your Works Cited page in your Proposal. Good for you!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck and thanks for posting.

Thanks Dr. Ferszt!
DeleteMy mentor is not an immigration expert, but she has provided ample resources for my research paper. I will have access to a database that covers all aspects of immigration law, as well as opinions about the immigration process and laws. I will also be interviewing immigration lawyers and immigrants about their experiences. I really like the idea of doing research at ASU's law school. I will be sure to look into that. Thanks for the advice and feedback!
