Explain. Include in your discussion pitch and melody. How would you describe the pitch range in each? In other words how would you describe each according to how conjunct or disjunct? Please review the Elements of Sound. Which one is the earlier chant? Discuss melisma and drone too; do you hear them in these particular chants?

When you write a critique, your goals are to be both supportive and rigorous. As easy as it is for readers to announce a thumbs-up (it’s good!) or thumbs-down (it needs work) verdict on a piece of writing, this kind of critique offers little back to writers and does nothing to further anyone’s critical reading skills. With a more sustained critique, you give the writer a chance to get to know their work much better and you get to practice for when you’re at home revising your own essay. Offer observation (what do you see?) and explanation (what is it in the writing that makes you think that?). Say what and then say why, whether you’re offering compliment or critique. Be thoughtful, be specific, and be kind.

How to do it:

  • Read the writer’s essay all the way through once.
  • Then, choose two or three of the following questions to answer in your critique. Choose those which are relevant to the writer’s strengths and areas for improvement—after reading the essay through, you should know what those are.
  • When you answer your chosen questions, be sure to always explain the reason for your comment and give examples of what you mean. This explanation is what makes for helpful feedback, whether it’s complimentary or critical.
  • What is this writer doing well?
  • What do you think the writer’s main idea/thesis is? What’s your main takeaway from the paper? If this isn’t clear, why not? How could it be made clearer?
  • Does the opener grab your attention? If not, what might you suggest as an opener? Does an alternative already appear in the essay?
  • Is the paper well organized, with one main idea per paragraph?
  • Is there enough support (in the form of quotations from the pieces) for the argument?
  • Where might the writer expand? Where should the writer condense their ideas?
  • Was any portion of the essay unclear? If so, how might this be clarified?

  • Identify activities on campus that promote responsible drinking.
  • Should alcohol be banned from fraternity or sorority rush and/or other official Greek functions?

economic policy memo

by

The memo:

You are a staff member of the Department of the Treasury, which develops tax policy. The Secretary of

the Treasury has read lots of research indicating that the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) , which

generously subsidizes wages of workers in low-income families with children, has spurred many single

mothers to enter the workforce, increasing their employment (and hence their earnings).

The Secretary is also aware that employment rates of low-skilled single men – often without children –

have declined substantially. She is therefore considering proposing that the EITC be expanded to also

generously subsidize wages of those with low incomes who do not have children. She has asked you to write a memo that discusses the potential benefits of this expansion of the EITC

given the problem of low employment of low-skilled males, as well as the potential effects on others

already eligible for a generous EITC. You have been instructed to reach a recommendation to either

leave the EITC as it is currently structured, or to expand its generosity to those without children.

The assignment:

Your memo will be two pages, double-spaced, and will discuss both what economic theory and the

evidence says about the question. As much as possible, back up your arguments with data and evidence.

You will have to do some research, and you will have to boil down a good deal of research into the very

short memo you have to write. The policy memos will be graded on both the content and the quality of

writing. Please do not hand in a memo until it is written well enough that you could imagine submitting it

for your work in a real job.

References to source materials you cite should be listed on additional pages, and do not count toward the

two-page limit. All sources should be cited, and claims about facts or research findings need to have

source materials cited.

You should be looking for materials that describe actual data and real research. You should not be citing

the opinions of others as the basis for the conclusions you draw.
