Hello
Sorry that this post is a little late, but here it is.
You have a choice of three essay topics, which are:
1. There are many important jobs such as doctor, judge or professor. Which job do you think is most important?
2. The most important thing for a good life is ________________.
or
3. What invention do you think has most improved the quality of your life? (Don't choose antibiotics)
Choose one of these topics and brainstorm your ideas about it. Then try to make a thesis statement and a plan for an essay on that statement. I would like you to e-mail me your thesis statement and plan by 2:30pm. Friday. My e-mail address is

Hello everyone,
I am sorry I missed your class last week and also sorry that I was so slow in writing your comments. They are on your posting now.
I did not comment on everything you all wrote, but focused on what I thought were the most important changes you needed to make. I hope my comments help you.
Bruce.
