Self-Reflection 2
Discuss how you went about selecting this topic. If there was a specific event that triggered you to write, discuss this event. If you are simply passionate about a certain topic, write about that.
I went about this topic because I wanted to discuss the concerns about the City College community at first on the memo and I have thought that Shuttle Bus service was one I should talk about and how it should still be fixed. I personally use this service when I commute from work to school using the Shuttle Bus service and I feel that this should highly be in need to be fixed. I was disgusted when I entered the bus by not having hand railings on the side for people to hold when the bus is in route and the service it provides to and from each stop towards City College. I felt when this assignment came around, I wanted to share my experiences about this and to share others how they similarly feel how CCNY budget is not spent well in this category.
What was the overall message you wanted to communicate to the reader? Select a section of your memo, and tell me why this section communicates your purpose.
I would like to share the reader my message I am pointing across and how it should be on their mind to be address the issue to the faculty and vice president as well as the president of City College. I want to show this issue in a students and faculty’s standpoint due to paying these services as well as tuition to give us needs and services to run City College as a whole. These services are essential to our daily routine because every member uses at least one of these services to live upon City College and this is one of the services people generally use.
Put yourself in the audience’s shoes. How might they respond to the memo you wrote? Describe what that situation might be like.
They might respond positively and will address the issue to others and will take it up to the matters of the upperclassmen to possibly fix the issue to an extent. They will possibly will communicate with me on this matter and will give advice on how they can solve this matter and will hear from other member(s) opinions about this as well.
Is there anything you might do differently, if you had to write this again? (Chances are, you will write a memo, one day!)
Instead of writing this to one specific audience, I would write this to the whole City College Community due to this topic being multiple audiences.
