Write Like a Champion
Wed, Nov 13
This will be a workshop to build up your philosophical writing skills, with a special focus on your apology projects (rough draft due 11/15!). Our own GGL TA's will be taking the lead, kicking us off with a session on what (not) to do when writing your apology. You'll also have the opportunity to workshop your in-progress apologies with a classmate or two using a peer review guide, and our primary learning goal is for you to leave with a clear plan for finishing/revising your rough draft.
Our optional application reading is a really nice example of people being driven by their GOALS to some very specific and deliberate MEANS of living.

This week, we want you to focus on writing.Prepare EITHER a complete outline OR a complete (ish) draft of your apology. Our TA's have drafted this handy guide. We will workshop these during class.
