Assignments

I really enjoyed both the first and second assignments. My group members made it so it was easy to come together and make the assignment that was well written. I actually enjoyed the second assignment a little more because we did it on an actual organization and had the opportunity to look at it and see the claims they made. We did our paper on the organization Mothers Against Drunk Driving or MADD. The organization was founded by two mothers that use the concept of dysphemism to emphasis the problem of drunk driving. The organization also uses emotional claims to help bring attention to their cause such as the two founders daughter being either killed of severely injured because of drunk drivers. The stories as well as the statistics help give credit to their mission statement as well as give the organization a reason to continue in their fight against drunk driving. Overall I enjoy writing this paper and ready for the next one.
