note: LinkedIn will still not LINK .. ironic, right? ... so I copied it there.

I really like this resource! It gives me great fodder for discussion with students and will give those who are lost a direction. It's interesting that not all essays are traditionally "great" but there is an explanation about what worked, what could be improved, and why the essay was "memorable."
