The essays here were written by students in HONR 202 at SUNY Geneseo in Spring 2018.<\/p>\n
HONR 202 is titled “Critical Reading.” Every section of Critical Reading has a subtitle. The subtitle for this section was “Digital Thoreau.”<\/p>\n
Students began the semester by reading Kathryn Schulz’s New Yorker<\/em> article “Pond Scum”<\/a>. Over the course of the semester, as they read such works as Walden<\/em><\/a>, “Resistance to Civil Government”<\/a>, and “Walking”<\/a>, together with selections from Thoreau’s Journal, they accumulated evidence to evaluate a number of the claims Schulz makes in her essay.<\/p>\n They used this evidence to respond to Schulz’s claims, sometimes agreeing with her, sometimes disagreeing, sometimes combining agreement with disagreement. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The essays here were written by students in HONR 202 at SUNY Geneseo in Spring 2018.
