Dear Russi,
We, Suzanne Drapeau’s Rht 102 students, are planning a “Day with the Grizzlies” for Alcott Elementary fifth graders on November 15, 2007.
We are planning the entire event: coordinating multiple sections of rhetoric, as well as students, faculty and staff from Alcott; organizing and preparing a campus tour; and sharing our college experience with the children. This is allowing us to develop our creativity, leadership skills, and organization
In addition, we are gaining individual and collaborative writing skills. The writing thus far has helped build audience awareness, mechanics, and style. We are getting real-world experience with brainstorming, drafting, revising, and editing texts for various audience.
Our project furthers the University’s mission statement to “render significant public service” and supports the President’s effort for the Michigan Campus Compact. Therefore, this project creates opportunities for reflection, not only on writing skills, but also personal growth and community involvement.
Please join us for lunch at noon in Vandenberg cafeteria on the 15th.
Respectfully,
Rht 102, section 44244
