Going to the Phi Alpha Theta regional conference at the University of North Florida in Jacksonville was an opportunity for me to attend such a conference for the first time. \u00a0I was only just recently inducted into Phi Alpha Theta, so I was curious about what this event would be like.<\/p>\n
I chose to participate in this conference because one of my personal goals is to improve my public speaking skills, and this conference presentation contributed to that since I have now gained more experience doing such presentations. \u00a0Doing history research and then communicating it are a large part of the history major, which is why this conference was a great opportunity to exercise these skills in a professional setting and see some examples of other such research presentation.<\/p>\n
I am very proud of this paper because it took an overwhelming amount of research and translation and polishing to put together, even before all of the editing and restructuring I did after the final draft was complete in order to make it suitable for presentation at this particular conference, so I was excited to be able to share it with others also in the history field. \u00a0I think my presentation went remarkably well, and I am glad I was able to represent Rollins and our chapter of Phi Alpha Theta with the best work I have.<\/p>\n
