4. The Experientialist Perspective

My subject was Tom Eddy.  He is about 5'7'' and weighs around 150 pounds.  He has black hair and light skin.  He donned a brown plaid jacket over a white shirt with black stripes.  He also wore jeans and glasses.  Tom sat in the basement of the library comfortably, with his legs crossed.  

Tom was participating in the same activity I was.  I do not know who his subject was but he kept his gaze behind me, interchanging observation and writing.  He spoke to a couple of the students who were filming because he participated as an actor in addition to completing the assignment Dr. Lay assigned.  

I already  know Tom so I was not surprised with my observations.  He is quiet and did the work assigned as he usually does.  He is also polite and kindly participated in the filming when asked.
