Dean Essner: Final Project Proposal

My final project will be an audio slideshow on President Wallace Loh's new home, as well as the reaction to his home once people enter it and determine whether it was worth the cost ($7.2 million). He has been inviting people to various "open houses", to let students and others associated with UMD see his new living space in all of its expensive glory. I plan on attending the open house on Wednesday, November 7th and taking pictures of the inside of his home and capturing audio of Loh interacting with his guests as well as guests mingling amongst themselves. Ideally, I'd want to get a short interview with Loh himself, but the main source of interview material will be his visitors during the social gathering and directly after it. Their reaction to his home and whether it was worth the time, money and effort will ultimately determine the story arc. Proposed headline for negative reaction from guests: Low Approval, Loh House Proposed headline for positive reaction from guests: The Loh House: A High Success Estimated length: 5 minutes
