Presentation theme

For a ten minuite presentation, I think i shall go into more detail about the history and details of Frankenmuth before the conversion to tourism. This should give the class a better picture of how big an actual change the transition was. For my capabilities, power point presentation seems the safest option.

New Thesis again.

Last thesis was too broad, being a report of sorts. I have decided to instead try to focus on the argument that without the Zehnder Family's leadership and drive to turn itself into a solely tourist based industry, Frankenmuth would have died out when the lumber and beer industries fell. I believe that a thesis should be an argument with a particular stance. Hopefully this new direction should satisfy all the paper requirements.
