INTRODUCTION
As every student on the campus takes his or her daily walk through there is one individual that everyone knows about and encounters. ... Who is this person that is so well known to all on campus? He is none other than the campus preacher. The campus preacher stations himself in a around midday and is sometimes accompanied by individuals distributing Bibles and others holding huge, gruesome signs. We chose to study the atmosphere the preacher brings to our campus. Sometimes it is an atmosphere that binds students together against the ludicrous comments of the preacher and other days it serves as a war zone as students not only verbally attack the preacher but each other.
METHODS
Studying the campus preacher is an action that most students walking through do subconsciously. ... The four of us simply decided to document and put these interactions on paper while truly observing the emotions the campus preacher brings forth. This is an aspect of our campus that everyone can relate to, has seen at least once, and has formed some opinion about what he does and says.
During the study, we acting in a variety of roles that affected our data and the way we perceived the audience and the preacher. ...
In total, each researcher spent twenty minutes on three separate occasions observing the preacher and student’s reactions. ... We could have asked more questions to members of the audience and interviewed the preacher to find out why he comes to this campus only to be gawked at.
