My name is Caroline Fearon and I am a Junior in Northwestern University's School of Communication. This website was created for my communication studies course- Subcultures and New Media Culture, taught by professor Maria Mastronardi. I hope you enjoy viewing my site and leave with a better understanding of the Beat Generation, and the the positive lasting impact they had on the structure of American Society. Thanks for reading!
