When you're ready to select an American thinker to explore for your independent research project, it can be helpful to look through your course textbooks and readings for ideas. Talk to your professor. Think about what topics and thinkers are most interesting to you, and chances are you'll find your project more engaging. Since your thinker may come from outside the traditional boundaries of philosophy (and disciplinary boundaries are often debated), this guide includes interdisciplinary sources that may be useful. If you need help along the way identifying secondary literature about your thinker, feel free to contact me - I love talking with students about their research!
