Critical Response #1 Assignment 

Respond the the source. For this particular response paper you will read and respond to the statements about civility on the Student Code, particularly the first three sections, and to Howard White’s essay, “The Power of Hello” and Carolyn Hax’s column. Make sure you address ALL sources, and give the reader cues about which source you are referring to.

Critical Response #2 Assignment 

Respond the the source. You may use the following questions as guidelines. Responses should be in paragraph form, not a line of answers for each line of questions. You should begin each response by identifying the source you are responding to, by title and author. The following questions are general and do not necessarily apply to every reading. They are suggestions to get you started. In addition, individual readings may suggest different questions to you. (For example, Anne Lamott’s essay invites you to compare your own writing process to hers. Obviously you will want to address that for this particular response.) Response papers are usually worth 10 points. All of the response assignments together are part of the homework component of your grade.
