How does this activity connect to your concurrent or past coursework? How does it speak
to your broader education goals and experiences?
This activity connects to my concurrent and past coursework because I took Law 100 Honors in
Fall Quarter and I am currently taking Management 200 which is a course about legal institutions
and processes in the business world. So far in college, courses about law have been my favorite.
Therefore, I wanted to do an Honors 499 project about a legal case to see how it affected society
and politics because of how much I enjoyed my previous law class. As an interdisciplinary
learner, it fascinates me and it also allows me to find out more about corporate personhood and
this project will allow me to gauge my interest in the details of constitutional and business law to
ascertain if I would like to be a lawyer in the future.
How will your activity contribute to the larger goals of the organization/your partners?
The activity will contribute to the larger goals of the UW Law School because they are trying to
facilitate more undergraduate involvement with their department. One way to do this is to have
classes for undergraduates like Law 100, which I took in the fall. This project will further
involve me with the law school and that is both good for them and the Honors Program. In
addition to this, Honors 499 projects are meant to allow independent research outside a student's
chosen major and I am doing exactly that with this project.
