FIRST DAY IN-CLASS WRITING

On the printout of this page, please do the following:

1. Write your full name, the name you want to be called, and the date. Example: Harold William Halbert, Hal, May 13, 2024.

2. Write a paragraph to the best of your ability that answers the following question: why are you here in college and what challenges does this choice pose for you? Consider your educational and career goals, the social forces and pressures about your decision to go to college, and the fact that college is not required. Also consider the challenges you face (in terms of intelligence, skills, motivation, work ethic, outside time constraints (jobs, hobbies, family, travel, etc.). I'm expecting at least half a page or more.

You can write on the front and back of the printout.
