Assignment for Friday, Oct. 19

Read the excerpt from J. D. Vance's Hillbilly Elegy that was distributed in class today. This chapter occurs after Vance served in the Marines but before he begins studying at Yale's Law School. Write a summary of that chapter based on the feedback of the last homework assignment. Be sure to clearly identify the author and the text, and to use your own word choice and sentence structure. As we discussed in Monday's class, you might find it helpful to take notes and identify the main points of the reading before you write the summary. Email the summary to me before the start of Friday's class; if you're in Google Classroom, submit this assignment there.
