What is the American dream

In your efforts to develop an argument you should revisit our past readings/discussions/notes on the various issues of literacy and higher education, and pay particular attention to our current readings on the American dream itself. You may also use the “talks” we’ve watched / heard throughout the course as you see fit (as foundation, support, examples, etc.), applying them to add more depth to your overall argument within the conversation of the American dream.

Remember

• If your idea of the American dream has evolved as the result of recent reading / discussion consider writing about how its changed and why
• It’s a definite plus if you can incorporate your personal dream and how it correlates (or not) with your definition of the American dream
• In-text citations and a Works Cited page are mandatory
• All previous drafts must be attached to the back of your final draft
• There are countless ways to approach this question so one of the most important aspects of this essay will be during your pre-writing / planning stage(s).
• It’s your time to shine so rock out.
