Atm. Malcolm MacCoy
Dear MalcOlm MacCoy:
I am writing to you in regards to one of the positions available on the Meridian Historical Society.
Please consider me for one of the open positions.
I believe I am qualified for this position because of my formal education and__training in the area
of history. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Education - majoring in social science and in history.
Currently I am working to achieve a Masters in History at Boise State University, Also, I am an
8~ 8fade social studies teacher in the Meridian School District. Some of my teaching assi~onments
include World History and Geography.
My training and education have given me a good foundation in understanding history, but my
personal feelings about history are as just important. History is not a passive discipline, but
rather an active one. History is built bom the important actions of people fi.om our past. History
is about the smaggles, sweat, tears, toil, and blood of men and women. A historian acts like a
detective working not only to memorize important facts, but understand motivations and feelings
of those involved. In short, history is a passion. The role of a historical society is not only to
p.r_eserve the past, but to share their passion of history, and encourage others in the pursuit of
historical understanding and preservation.
In conclusion, I thank you for your time in this matter and I look forward, to meeting with you to
discuss my qualifications. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
My phone number is 461-8752, and my email is jpmoran~icehouse, net.
