Hey is there anything in particular you want me to say in your intro? Like that you enjoy long walks on the beach or something like that? Just kidding I mean something serious though.

If you want, you can mention that it's no surprise that our only monument from South Dakota is being presented by the only person who attended high school in South Dakota (while living in Browns Valley, MN)

Good, you've got a start on this. Since you've begun an introduction, you ought to be able to fill in the lead and thesis. I think, though, you have the material for your lead listed in section II. II.A. should be historiographic, dealing with interpretations of historical monuments and collective memory.
Memory groups--great!
III. This is great, too! I wasn't thinking of the monument as celebrating Norwegian independence. This means it actually celebrates two things--Lincoln and Norway. Good. Make these two points in this section.
Sections below--start taking the material and listing it down as subpoints.

Good, you've got a start on this. It looks to me like the material you have under background below is actually what you intend to use as your lead, though. II.A. should be a historiographic section--interpretations of historical monuments, collective memory.
III-IV. Start arranging sub-points under these sections.
V. This material goes above, where you discuss establishment of the monument. Here you talk about things after the monument is established.

Good, you've got a start on this.
Lead: I'm not sure which strategy you're going for here. Starting wtih the founding of the town? Is it supposed to be general, or specific?
Thesis: I see where you're headed with this, fine; be sure that the thesis puts the emphasis on the monument, and thus the memory of Reeves, not on Reeves himself.
II. You know the standard elements of background, right?
III. Start taking the material and arranging it below in sub-points.
IV. Same here, start making sub-points.

Glad to see your outline taking shape.
II.A. This is supposed to be a historiographic section. I'll talk about it in class.
OK, keep on with it; the outline will fill in as your research progresses.

Off to a good start here, Matt.
II.B.i. So, who were these folks? Divide into classes and develop.
III. More than NGM, right? Should establish the broader celebration of the dairy enterprise.
V. This section will have to include the decline of the dairy industry in ND, and of dairy science at NDSU, and thus decline of the original memory groups.

II.A. This needs to be a historiographic section. Use secondary works on the nature of historical monuments and the dynamics of collective memory. It may or may not even mention your particular monument. Make interpretive points.
III. Here you discuss what the GAR was, the history of Union veterans, and their identity as a memory group.
IV. Start breking this out into sub-points. This might include activities of teh GAR in Fargo; involvement of Gov. Hanna; campaign for the monument; dedication of the monument; and so on.
V. The fuzziest section right now--a place to focus your research soon!
OK Matt, kepp on going! You're starting to put things on paper, great.

Good, you're filling in the log. Let's talk in class about the two-monument question. As for researchc, I hope you'll get going on Reeves himself. See what's in the WPA guide to North Dakota, as well as local histories, about him. Also check him out in ancestry.com. More to come.

Good to see you log set up, Mark. Now get after the research, so there is more to report! One thing to do at the outset is a web search about this class of monuments erected by the Boy Scouts in the 1950s. That will get you started on broader context.
