The audience for my profile in my opinion is either current college students or high school students that are about to go into college. I feel like this story could be something that these students read and reflect on it themselves. The story could allow people to reconsider where they will go to college and find a university that best fits them. I think my article plays a part in the UCBA community discourse because to allows students to relate to a story like this because all college students struggle at times when it comes to college and it’s nice to relate to someone else. I think it reflects the values of the community because I am trying to tell one of my friends story and it allows others to read it so they can get to know his story too.
As for the process of drafting and revising my paper it was a very simple process in which I use for every one of my papers. Except this time I added the element of doing an interview with this paper so I feel as if it went even smoother than some of my other papers. I have allowed my peers to look over my paper and give me some criticism and was able to use the information they gave me to produce a pretty solid profile in my opinion. No I don’t think that my paper is ready for publication nor do I think I want it to be published and put out into the public. I don’t feel as if my writing is good enough to be put out for the whole university to read. Those are my thoughts on how writing this paper went.
