Assignment: This isn't a "what I did on my summer vacation" assignment. Rather, this is an opportunity to highlight what you feel are the three most significant events that happened over the Summer of 2015.  You may include international, national or local events on your list. 

For each event, provide: 
  • Location
  • Date (if possible, some stories/events are ongoing) 
  • Person, people or interest groups involved
  • What happened
  • Why is this a topic you chose to discuss? In other words, why is it important?
