Mini Personal Essay
Think of all the different ways in which you either define yourself or are defined by the society
at large, and then how that definition has allowed you freedoms and advantages or possibly
curtained certain freedoms and caused you disadvantages. You may find in writing that you
have experienced advantages and disadvantages as a result of your race, gender, ability and
class. I’m less interested in how creatively you interpret this prompt than in how authentic you
will allow yourself to be.
Please write in full sentences, punctuate and spell correctly, and do your best to write openly.
