1. Write a 500 word personal
narrative essay describing
what you hope to gain from your college experience. You may
include details about what you have learned and what you hope
to learn in college that will help you to achieve your career
goals.
Please note:
The goal of narration is to tell a story. For this assignment, I am
asking that you narrate your "story" of your college experience
and what you hope will happen because of this experience once
you have graduated.
Of all the essays I will assign throughout the course, this is the
most informal; you will
not need
to produce a rough draft of this essay assignment.
However, this is a composition course, so please reference the
Lectures section of the course for information on essay writing
and essay formatting. All of the essays you write for this course
should be formatted according to MLA (Modern Language
Association) guidelines. In addition to the resources provided in
Lectures(Week One folder), the External Links section of the
course contains recently updated information on MLA
guidelines through the link titled, "MLA Formatting and Style
Guide." Please adhere to MLA guidelines whenever you are
writing for this course.
