Welcome to English 100!
This is our English 100 website. When we get to blogging our journals (around spring break in March), then you'll be included in the links to the right. Before then, you can check here for assignments and announcements. I look forward to spending a fun and productive semester with you!
Assignment for Monday, Jan 24: Read Lorde (e-reserve) and "Claims and Support" (in your textbook). Print out this article and bring it to class. After reading both, think: What kind of claim do you think Lorde is making in this excerpt from her autobiography? Write (at least) a paragraph explaining what you think might be the central claim in her writing, and what support she uses to solidify it.
