The Plastic Pink Flamingo

I think the grader's critiques were very accurate. The essays were very dificult to read and the students gave many "glittering generalities" as Mrs. Hastig would say. They didn't give a lot of proof and explanation to teh rhetorical analysis points they were trying to make. I do, however, feel that all 3 essays were not quite ~4.31 material. The third one was actually written quite well and was consice and to the point, which made it pleasant to read. The first essay was so long that it felt like it was dragging on and was unpleasant to read. In general I would have given the essays an average of a 5 with the exception of the third essay which I believe deserved a 7-8.
