Short Description of your Research or Creative Project (700 characters or less)

My hometown of Angels Camp is a bit bullfrog crazy because the town has various statues, paintings, and plaques of bullfrogs all over the town. There is even an annual fair where people from all over the world compete to see how far their bullfrog can jump. My project would explore the use of the bullfrog as an important rhetorical artifact in Angels Camp as the reason the town has prospered very well. This will be done by taking a look at the history between the town and the bullfrog from the creation of the town, approving the bullfrog as a rhetorical artifact in 1928, and its continuous success today.
