Assignment task:
Overview and Background: Part of your grade for Geography 310 will be based on 3 "Mini-Projects" throughout the semester. For our second project, I am going to have you research and construct an argument regarding the European Union. The EU has been in existence (in some form) for over 60 years and today, a majority of the countries of Europe are members. In many regards, the EU has united the countries of Europe like nothing else in history. On page 211 of our textbook, there is a text box that poses a question, "Does the EU benefit Europeans?" Chose one side of this debate (either pro or con), and succinctly argue your point of view. If you do not have access to the textbook, I have placed the text box at the end of this assignment for you to review.
