M: Do you want to go to the movies with us on Saturday?
W: Thanks, but I have to study my research project. I’m taking that same course you took with Prof. Gray.
M: The one on sociology course? Oh, good! I’m sure you’ll get a lot from it.
W: I have to admit that it scared me a little at first. It seems so technical. But then when she explained that it’s what sociologists do, you know, how they investigate and record aspects of a culture, I didn’t feel so intimidated!
M: Yeah. It’s good to start doing that now before you become a graduate student and have to conduct large projects by yourself.
W: I have the same feeling. I hope this experience would help me in the future.
M: Who is your first interviewee?
W: You know the publishing office where I used to work? Vivian, the woman I worked for. She’s been a manager there for over 30 years and seen a lot of changes in the industry. I think I’d start out by interviewing her about how people in the office interact with each other and with outside clients.
M: Isn’t it funny how we use the foreign cultures and have the travel halfway across the world to do it? The best part of that course is that it shows you that research can also be done on a familiar ground.
W: Yeah. I got the idea of my project from reading Robert Marshal’s study of office life and I realized I already had some background in that. So far, I’m really enjoying this course.
