Columbine Dissertation, anyone fancy a read?

Hi guys!
I'm doing my Masters dissertation on Columbine and would love to receive some feedback from those with some level of academic interest in the event (preferably not JUST morbid curiosity). Unfortunately my friends don't have any sense of morbidity being interesting, so I'm looking to you guys for help!
It's 20,000 words so not just a quick read, but (I hope) pretty interesting! I'm not intending to share widely due to plagiarism concerns, but if you fancy a read n giving me some critique that'd be great!
Thanks so much!

I’ll read it

Amazing, thank you! I apparently haven't reached the 'post limit' to send private messages, how could I get it to you?

Use the link to this thread to increase your post count to 10 and then your private messaging will be automatically activated. And I'd love to read it too.

I like reading. You can send it to me and I can offer any suggestions if you wish.

I would definitely like to read it.

I would like to read it too!

I wouldn't mind reading it. What kind of degree/subject is it for?

I have 0 idea how to reply to each post, so thanks so much you guys! I'm gonna try n send it to each of you tonight as a .pdf (when it'll actually be written, excluding editing and adding like 200 references...). Really appreciate you all being willing to read it (and hopefully offer some feedback!)
It's a Masters degree in History, I'm from the UK

Cool. Can't wait! Hurry, hurry, hurry.

So what happened with this one? Had me drooling. But... Has anyone received what we've been promised? Or this fucker should be shot.

Hi guys! So I was basically informed by my supervisor that I wasn’t allowed to share my dissertation prior to submission- issues with potential plagiarism, etc.
I submitted a couple weeks ago but started up as a secondary History teacher so been crazy busy and totally forgot to update this! I’ll happily share if anyone’s still interested

Cool! Makes sense. Of course we all want a piece. Thanks! And good luck with new job.

Do I send individually or can I post it here?

You could post a link, or just PM each of us. They'll be delighted to find your work in their message box, I swear.

Absolutely! You can PM

I know I'm impatient, but... Is he just jerking our chain?

If so, it's actually pretty funny.

I’d love to read it as well.

I'd be happy to read it. I have an MA myself and am working towards my PhD. I'm not writing about anything Columbine related (right now, anyway) but I'd be happy to assist with any academic writing/referencing related things or general dissertating woes.

I think the person was just pulling our leg.

That's kind of disappointing. I'd love to read more takes on it from academics that aren't criminal justice-focused. I have a whole mess of academic articles from journals I've been saving for when I finally get time to write one of my own.

Actually, if anyone is interested, I could start sifting through those to find the decent ones and share on the board - some of the journals require institutional access to look at their stuff. Unless there's a collection of these on here already and I just missed it somehow.

I will read it!!!!!

where to read it ??

I'll be able to spend a little time this weekend sorting through what I have and giving the files real names instead of number strings. So, should have some stuff to post in a day or two!

Look, I hate to rain on everyone's (including mine) parade here, but if this person actually had anything to post/upload/PM to any of us (lol), they would have done so two months ago.

I also don't think a Columbine-based dissertation would be met with a nod outside a niche community like this one. You can't base a whole dissertation on Columbine without coming off as another worshiper. Mass shooters in general? Maybe. A single event? If that's even possible, it's begging for trouble.

very good point, a dissertation would have to cover a much broader topic and columbine could be used as an example or a case study.

Looking forward to it; I need more stuff to read.
