meaningful primary source assignment - due Thurs 9/14

Due at the start of class on Thursday 9/14:

Bring a primary source that has meaning to you.  Write a short (3-4 sentence) explanation of what the source is and why it's meaningful to you.  Your explanation needs to be typed and printed in time for class.  If you don't want to bring the original source itself because it's delicate or valuable, you may choose to bring a picture or a copy (please remember to print the copy or image - all work is due in hard copy, unless an assignment specifically says otherwise).  Worth 10 points and due at the start of class on Thursday 9/14.
