While I usually enjoy writing essays, some of the essays that were assigned to me this term were good and bad. Some were designed to expand your horizons and increase your ability to think, while others were basically a waste of time. Let me share with you some thoughts on those essays that I thought were good or bad over the term.
My favorite essays are wrote were an arts essay studying pottery designs from Egypt and a management essay that studied the effect of hiring techniques in small business firms. Both of these studies open my mind to new areas that I had never considered studying before. It was nice to have the opportunity to develop opinions and thoughts in these areas.
What I really didn’t care for was a sociology essay that was assigned to us to study the causes of divorce in America. I found that we might have been too young to understand the implications or relate to the material. Also, with the large attention that the media gives to this topic, it turned out that we’re really did not learn anything "new" in this area of study. I was very disappointed that my sociology class turned out the way it did.
