Letters to the Editor

Letters to the Editor: Consider your responses to your classmates as “Letters to the Editor.” Assume you are the reader of this newspaper and want to respond to what you read. Your responses must show some analytical thought and foster more dialogue. Ask questions, give a different point of view, bring up another aspect of the topic your classmates did not cover, and so on. Interaction such as this is what makes this assignment relevant and prevents it from being merely a completion exercise. When writing your Letters to the Editor, you must reply to the board at least 5 times, 3 in response to classmates’ Editorials, and 2 in response to classmates’ responses to Editorials (to either your own Editorial, or to the Editorials of their classmates).
