I have narrowed down my Junior theme topic to violence in young americans. Violence in schools is increasing a lot in schools. When a friend of mine told me chicago public schools all have metal detecters at the doors I realized how large of an issue is in this country our own city. Also a recent shooting at NIU involving a number of college students shows there is a growing problem in the US. I Found a good book which focuses on violence in schools. Im pretty happy with junior theme so far and I am finding my topic pretty interesting. Also, the librarians have been very helpful in helping me find my materials.

Thanks for the kind words about librarians - and here's another idea for you: take a few minutes to check out a new database, Sirs Researcher, on our Class Links page.
Start with school violence as your search term -- look also at the tabs under Overview; Pro/Con and school violence - you will find many ideas about future direction for your research in addition to 100's of articles. Please see me or Mrs. G. with any questions.
