readers know how your summer and fall research went.” Teresa Hackler “As you know, these projects are designed to investigate important aspects of U.S. business and economic history.” “Your project relates to health care access in the Pacific Northwest, which I find fascinating. Can you begin by describing it for us, Teresa?” Hackler: “Yes, certainly! My summer research project focused on the history of racial discrimination directed against black residents of Multnomah County, Oregon from 1940-1960
