The research proposal asks to research the legal question of affirmative action and how it benefited the submitter's mother as one of the first women put into a traditionally male position. This topic is of interest because of the submitter's personal connection to it through their mother. The research should take into account the specific facts around when the submitter's mother first benefited from affirmative action policies. The submitter expects to find in the research how affirmative action helped enable more opportunities for women in male-dominated fields at the time their mother received a position.
