Portfolio


I spent the past semester becoming acquainted with the presence and function of "rhetoric" in civic life.  Through LA 101H, I've learned that rhetoric, "the art of language used persuasively," is the driving force between every choice we make and every attitude we adopt.    As a psychology major, I am particularly interested in the ways rhetoric functions in the social world as a medium of communication.  This portfolio compiles some of my works from this past semester that demonstrate the ways rhetoric can be used to convince, to argue, to solve problems, to prompt thought, to evoke emotions, and to motivate.  As my college career progresses, I will update my portfolio with further compositions.
