Your Task: Read They Say “The (Futile) Pursuit of the American Dream” pp. 260-271.
Ehrenreich recounts her process of learning about and writing a resume for white collar
jobs in corporate America. Write an essay recounting your own process of learning
about and entering a new field. For example, I might write about entering the world of
amateur competitive long distance running or my first semester in graduate school.

Remember Chapter 7: just because something happened to you, doesn’t mean your
readers will care. You have to make us care. Your audience is your classmates and me.
We have read Ehrenreich’s essay. Refer the author by her last name only.
