2. (Need to know) What questions do you have that haven't been answered about the senior project? This can be about the senior project in general, any components or about a presentation topic you saw or what they said.  

Woodworking - Would wood carving be considered a part of woodworking?

Interior Design - What is most important in redecorating a residential bedroom?

- Would the tips given be able to be applied to the redecoration of other rooms like offices or living rooms?

Lock smithing - Is it possible to rekey padlocks?

Child care Specialist - Do the child care specialist base their suggestion of medicine on how the children react their prescripted medicine?

Clinical Social Worker - If the social worker's client is a family member instead of someone with a romantic relationship, is the bias still anticipated?  

Healthy Mexican Food - What counts as a non-authentic Mexican food? Is authenticity determined by the meal's ingredients?

Game Journalism - Are video games judged similarly to how movies are reviewed, considering their similarities?

3. What has the most important part of the senior project based on what you are seeing in the 2-hour presentations?

Hitting the time requirements. It is a very simple thing, but it seems rather difficult to fulfill as it looked like presentation and talking time was the last thing on the presentator's mind.

4. What topic are you considering doing and why?

I'm thinking of doing music production. I like music and I always felt like music producers are the hidden aces of the music industry. It'd be awesome to know the details of what they do and their techniques, because I only know a little bit about them.
