Dinner Party Assignment- Taylor Wilhelmy

Arrangement of the table
I chose to put what prompted the protocol next to the long-term effects because, as the effects of concussions were researched, the NFL realized that they need to put measures in place in order to make sure to help with player safety. I put the long-term effects next to the development of the protocol because the effects are what causes the protocol to change. I put the development of the protocol next to the players reaction because the players reactions are what drive the changes in the protocol because, as the players complain about the conditions they are developing from their playing days, the NFL looks into the protocol and makes changes if necessary. Finally, I put the current studies next to the players reactions because the players see the results of the studies and they fight for changes based on what is shown in research. I kept the current studies away from what prompted the protocol and the players reactions because the protocol was developed long before the studies were ever conducted and players never really spoke out about their feelings on their health prior to the NFL implementing the protocol.

I always thought it was used to just categorize novels or short stories but, now that I have read this piece, I now realize that genres are important because, if you write in the wrong genre, the message that you want to portray can come across completely differently then you had intended. The example that Dirk used of George Washington and his State of the Union Address. By using this genre, Washington...

Taylor   I really liked the video that Taylor made because it was a good visual representation for people who don’t like football. Personally, I like football, so I think it is necessary to have more research done for the players wellbeing. Sarah I really liked how Sarah chose such a relevant topic to today’s times. I really liked her journal entries because it showed how much a person is affected by others. No one should be judged based on their gender. Luke B I really like that he used a survey because it gave a semi accurate representation of the people here. I think it’s really funny that he chose the topic of makeup because most of the girls here always are done up. Kathryn The Spotify playlist was a very unique idea. I like that she included songs that help her study, or can be helpful for studying. Music does tend to affect a person mood, so it was an interesting genre alteration. Logan I really liked the twitter page that he made because it hit his ...
