So great has been the endurance, so incredible the achievement, that, as long as the sun keeps a set course in heaven, it would be foolish to despair of the human race.

I have been asked to do a short talk and 'question and answer' session at a local secondary school. Without getting into the nitty-gritty of what the subject is, are there any generic things I can do to make the presentation interesting? For example, should I include a Powerpoint presentation, or is that likely to bore everyone senseless?! Any help would be appreciated.

"In a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a check. When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir.

I failed my calc class this semester and it lowered my gpa to below a 2.5 I'm retaking it again this summer so it will be removed before I return to campus for the fall. Will I be allowed to pledge since I'm retaking the class? I don't want to go through everything and find out this isn't allowed.

I'm an adult student (28) who returned to college @ 24 to complete my bachelor's degree & change careers. I will graduate this summer with a dbl.-major B. of Science, & have been accepted to grad school in the fall. I already have an associate degree and have worked in my field (IT) for 8 years. I have supported myself the entire time I've been in school, sometimes going to school FT and working 2 jobs. My mother also passed away my first semester, so the semester after that I got straight Cs. My overall GPA will only be a 3.0 but my major GPA will be a 3.37. I've struggled a lot & haven't always gotten the best grades due to my time constraints and depression after my mother died. (She was very sick for years and we were close.)
With my combined education and work experience, plus an explanation of what caused my lower GPA, do you think it will matter to employers? Should I list both my major and my overall GPA on my resume or just my major GPA?

I hope to do better in grad school!

RESEARCH PAPER: ALTERNATE ASSIGNMENT (Mrs. Francis)

PROMPT: Using the sources listed below, write a researched paper in which you argue
why Arthur Miller chose to compare the McCarthy hearings to the Salem
Witch Trials in his play, “The Crucible.”

SOURCES: You may use Wikipedia as a “Works Consulted” only, which means you
can read it and use it as a starting point for your knowledge, but you may not
use it directly in your paper or cite it in your “Works Cited” page. You may
only use the following sources:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/3002239.stm

http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/USAmccarthy.htm

http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/FBI_Synopsis_on_%22Operations_of_the_MGB_Residency_at_New_York%2C_1944-45%22

http://etext.lib.virginia.edu/salem/witchcraft/

http://jefferson.village.virginia.edu/salem/17docs.html

You may also use the play, “The Crucible.” See Mrs. Francis or Mrs.
Dewey to check out a copy. Also, be sure to cite it!

FORMAT: 4-5 pages in length
MLA style throughout: heading, title, page numbers, font, spacing, etc.
Must contain BOTH in-text citations as well as Works Cited bibliography
with at least five sources



EVALUATION: This essay will be PASS/FAIL. You will be allowed five errors of any
kind—grammar, punctuation, format, etc. If you exceed five
errors in your paper, you will not receive any points. If you have
fewer than five errors and you have written a paper with a clear,
well-argued thesis, then you will receive 350 points. This will
either take the place of a zero grade from your History Day paper
or it will be used as an additional assignment.

Because this essay is PASS/FAIL, you will need to make sure you have plenty of time to check and revise your paper. I will be happy to help you before or after school. You can also email me with questions. There are also resources on Blackboard that you can go to for help with MLA format.

All essays must be submitted to me by MONDAY MAY 21, 2007.
