Good vs Cr-ppy Essay
What goes into a "good" college essay, anyway?
Does it have to be about some enormously dramatic, Lifetime Move-quality event that occurred in a young lad's or lass's life?
Some gigantic, breathtaking obstacle that the young chap or damsel overcame before going onto accomplish scholastic glory?
Or an abundance of wicked smaht-sounding, multi-syllabic words such as "myriad" and "plethora" stuffed into every sentence?
I bet you know the answers to those questions.
What about "good" and "bad" essay topics?
Getting cut from a team, then working out extra hard over the summer in Rocky's old gym, coming back, making the team and kicking the winning goal or making a buzzer beater from half court?
Writing about grandpa's words of wisdom?
Or oing political?

P.S. At the end of the class, I will make a one-time, "exploding" offer, after I'm done teaching.
