I think that’s a great question you have at the end. However, I would argue that McClure’s work doesn’t actually help convey science to the public, that it’s simply a natural beauty to be admired but not analyzed. […]

Those are some great connections you made. I can certainly relate to those unwelcome wake-up calls. For me it’s the garbage truck that for some reason has to beep loud enough to be heard on the other side of […]

Interesting question you pose at the end. My guess would something like nationalism. A lot of countries probably don’t like the idea of other countries coming in and investigating them. But then couldn’t the […]

Great summary, and I really liked the points you made. Williams does mention cancer men (Irene Allen’s husbands died of it) but it’s true Williams doesn’t mention men in her family or men getting breast cancer. […]

I really liked your “who cares.” Since environmentalism is such a current issue, I think it would really help your paper to focus on this aspect. You also did a good job connecting your counterargument to your […]

I like how you focused on the illusion of escape offered by nature and then tied this deception to your object. The ivy does seem natural at first glance, and it’s interesting to think about the human culture that […]

I had a hard time understanding quite a bit of this reading, but your summary really helped clear up some of my fuzzier points. Thank you for the great explanation.

A bleak but potentially much more realistic view of Geneseo’s relationship with nature. All prospective students are told time and time again about the college’s beauty, and it’s great to see someone questioning […]
