Throughout the process of researching about Bill Zorn I learned about what he did for this campus and how he effected the community.  Starting this project I knew that Bill Zorn was a basketball at Eau Claire but other than that I didn’t know much more.  My question was what did Bill Zorn do at Eau Claire and what did he accomplish. I wanted to know how successful of a coach he was and as I researched he was also the athletic director and the dean of men. Then I wondered how did he affect the university and what impact that had on the community.

As I did my research I found he was very involved with Eau Claire and that he was held high in the Eau Claire community.  One thing that I want to learn more about is the specifics of his accomplishments that he did because so far in my research I haven’t found a lot specifics but I wish to learn more of this highly respected person in the community of Eau Claire.

In the future I wish to research more of the Bill Zorn papers at the libraries archives because it is a large collection and I have not had enough time to go through all of it thoroughly.  So far my questions are being answered but they could be answered more deeply and have more detail.

My next source is a group of articles and pamphlets that were for the celebration of Bill Zorn towards the end of his coaching career and after he retired from athletic director.   I selected these because it has quotes from people who work with Bill Zorn and were important to the Eau Claire community at the time.  I feel like it will give me a good aspect of what people thought of Bill at that time.

This primary source will give me evidence of what kind of man Bill Zorn was because it had all of his achievements listed and peoples personal comments about him.  These articles will be biased because they will be promoting Bill but it will also show what good things he has done.  These will help my rhetorical context by helping build my invented ethos. 

From these articles I learned that Bill Zorn was a successful coach and helped build Eau Claire’s athletic programs as the athletic director.  One thing missing is heavy context of how he achieved all of these great achievements.  I want to know how he did all the great things he accomplished.  Putting this source with the other sources I have written about I feel that the picture of Bill Zorn that I am imagine is starting to become complete.
