JOHN SANDERSON introduced Dr. Jeremy Straughn, Asst. Professor of
Sociology at Purdue who asked, "What does it mean to be American?" Or "Who
do we think WE are?" There are three possible models, Civic, Cultural and
Ethnic. Depending on who you ask, each could be considered most important
when asked, "What does it take to be truly American?" He proceeded to share
the results of a survey he conducted. Most everyone agrees that citizenship,
speaking English, and pledging allegiance to the country are important attributes
of being an American.
PAT COREY introduced Debra Lutes from Ivy Tech. She received a travel mug with the 4-Way Test to commemorate meeting with us.
