1. As a group, come to an agreement on which two essays among the six that we read for today seem most like argument essays, which seem most strongly to make a debatable point. For those two essays, agree on a sentence that you think is the best candidate for a thesis statement.
2. Imagine that your group is the admissions committee for an elite graduate program for college administrators seeking an advanced certificate in Social and Emotional Learning. Excellent writing skills are one of the criteria for admission. Other qualities the committee is looking for are strong leadership abilities, good critical thinking skills, and emotional intelligence.
You have a group of six finalists, all of whom have been deemed equal in every respect (graduate school transcripts, publications, service to their universities, etc.) and now you must choose which two candidates to admit based on the writing samples you have before you.
