Research Proposal

I plan on starting my proposal by explaining why I enjoy wanted to write about this topic. I am very interested in sports and I also feel that people need help in the healing process after not only national tragedies but also tragedies that happens within a community. One local tragedy that happened just a year ago was the Bluffton University bus crash that happened last March. I live 30 minutes from Bluffton and have friends that go there. I feel that the tragedy there as well as treagedies such as 9/11, Virginia Tech shooting, and Hurrican Katrina are all tragedies that everybody was affected by. I want to write about how sports is a very effective way to help people heal. Sporting events bring not only local communities together but sometimes a nation. After 9/11 when baseball started back up it brought people together to begin the healing process and help people to begin to move on with life again.
