Visit the 9/11 Museum in New York City on your own time, taking notes on your visit (and taking and uploading a selfie).
Write a detailed proposal for a new permanent exhibit. Your paper should
describe your proposed new exhibit, including the artifacts, displays, or materials that will be included
explain why the new exhibit should be added (how does it fill a gap in the museum as it currently exists?)
draw on what you’ve learned in the course (but you need not include citations)
be 6 to 8 pages in length, double-spaced, with 1-inch margins, 12-point Times New Roman type, and numbered pages
be in Microsoft Word format (no PDFs or other formats)
have a title of your choosing (i.e., not just “Museum Paper”), which should be centered just above or below single-spaced name/course/date, which should occupy minimal space on the page.
be accompanied by a selfie (uploaded separately here) visibly taken at the museum
More about visiting the museum: If you chose Option 1, one free ticket to the Museum has already been sent as a PDF to your Canvas inbox. Remember, you must visit the (indoor) museum, not just the (outdoor) memorial. You will need to take notes during your visit using the 9/11 Museum Visit Guide and WorksheetLinks to an external site. because photography is not allowed in the historical exhibition. You may go at any time the museum is open (Wed-Mon, 9AM-7PM); I can help connect classmates wishing to travel together. The Museum is at 180 Greenwich Street in lower Manhattan, across the street from the World Trade Center PATH station.
