The student sample resume had a great aesthetic to it and seemed very organized. They made really good use of one page while not making it too overwhelming. This is a great example for knowing how to format a resume. #RHUB305

@qsomers0855 Hi Quin, I definitely agree with this. I can recall times that people have talked about their jobs in such a passionate and inspiring way. I remember thinking that I would love to also be so passionate about something one day. This can also help prevent burnout!

We should be able to feel secure and comfortable in any career we choose. Getting straight to work can give us room to change experiences, while grad school can feel more permanent and focused on only one career field. #RHUB305

[Fern @fernsdsu]

A big takeaway from class was talking about the certainty that should come with a career, and whether grad school or the workforce is the best step for us. There is a lot of pressure on both sides of that argument, but the conversations we had in class helped a lot. #RHUB305

I have been through lots of interviews and each time it’s difficult to know what to say or how to update my resume. This weeks article about marketing yourself is a useful reference for what to say in future interviews. #RHUB305

@amendivil4195 This is a really interesting topic! I know way too many people that say they would have preferred for their parents to separate for this exact reason. A good relationship between parents does not always require staying together.

This past week has brought my attention to how I could use different words and perspectives (such as war and art) to present different arguments. I still need to do more research, but having these different writing styles helps already. #RHUB305

While MLA format may have been more familiar to me in the past, APA format is used in my counseling classes, therefore I think it would be more beneficial for me to use APA. Either way, there are many resources that can help with formatting papers. #RHUB305

As a Mexican woman, I'm in favor for certain terms that I identify or describe myself with, but I should still talk about different terms used by other cultures. This could change the directory of my paper or provide a new perspective on how identity is different for everyone.

My paper talks about various different terms used by Latinos, but this article mentions how people from different countries prefer more specific terms than the ones I outline. This complicates my argument since there are many more intersections. https://t.co/pALTqXk2iR #RHUB305

My paper is about different terms used by Latin communities to identify with. I was thinking of using this visual because it generally glances at what the focus of each term is. I was wondering if it is relevant even if I don't talk about the term "hispanic" much. #RHUB305

The author attacks the idea of abolishing the death penalty from all angles by including the argument from innocence, the perspectives of inmates on the death row, and multiple theoretical assertions that question what abolishing this policy would result in. #RHUB305

[Fern @fernsdsu]

@EGovenar I agree. It was hard for me as well since I didn’t have a specific topic I wanted to research. The good thing is that there are soooo many sources that we can site!

[Fern @fernsdsu]

I was thinking about writing my research paper on the new use of the word “Latine” to identify people of latin decent. There has been a lot of discourse on different terms that have been used in the past and their impact on the latin community. #RHUB305

After exploring the database, I found it pretty easy to navigate. I want my topic to be something along the lines of psychology, chicana studies, gender identity, or possibly all three. I found it pretty easy to search journals by subject and am excited to read more. #RHUB305

@manwall610 I like how you mentioned that he allows us to put ourselves into his examples. We will never understand what he has gone through in his life, so him giving us detailed anecdotes was very personal and gave us a glimpse as to what he is warning his son about.

[Fern @fernsdsu]

This week in class we learned about different styles of letters as well as the different rhetorical devices that can go into any piece of writing. Knowing how to use both of these variations is vital in how we persuade and communicate with our audiences. #RHUB305

[Fern @fernsdsu]

Ta-Nehisi's article uses a strong sense of pathos as a rhetorical strategy to emphasize the urgency of racism in america. The fact that it was a very personal letter also adds to the fact that this atrocity is constantly endangering people's lives. #RHUB305

[Fern @fernsdsu]

The letter about toxic masculinity was very argumentative towards people who denied the issue. While backed by personal anecdotes, it is easy to see how toxic masculinity still exists outside of this persons life. This letter efficiently calls for action towards the end. #RHUB305

@EGovenar Hi Eryn, i agree. It also connects to discourses and how even with so much authority, Obama could still connect with communities all across the U.S. through issues that we are all familiar with. It is so important to understand each other in order to progress.
