Mini Ethnographic Post

During my field project I choose to study the courtyard by the Bell Tower. My main method was observations. During my time observing I noticed that students during class time traveled by themselves or only with one other person. This was interesting to be because during non class times I often see students traveling in larger groups. I would say that the students were traveling by themselves about 50% and in a group of two about 50%. I also noticed that girls were more likely to walk by themselves than guys were. Most of the groups of two were men. Finally, the only time during my observation that I noticed a group larger than two was when I observed a group of three. However, they were standing and talking and when they were done talking, they split into individuals and traveled by themselves. This suggests that during class times, students are less likely to have more than one additional person to walk with.
