Agenda for Day 2: 8/23

Agenda Items:


Thought of the day: "You are the dream of your ancestors, realized.  Many of them could not attend college.  Their dream is your dream: to succeed.  What then, is your kuleana to your ancestors?"

Go over any over-arching questions lingering from ENG 100.  (~5 minutes)

 Make sure students have completed "The 5-Step Personal Essay Writing Guide: "Future Career"" (~15 minutes + shareout)

 Students will then need to execute their one page Mini-Assignment #4 so that half of their homework is done for the weekend.  

 If time is available, students are encouraged to finish up or begin their Questionnaire Assignment.  Please remember, ENG 98 students.  I want you to do the "Letter to the Counselor" assignment on a mandatory basis.
