Rhetorical Strategies, Group Project

We are planning on appealing to the pathos of our audience with our tag line of "hook up." This plays on the emotions of college students because there are things that college students associate with this phrase. We are not referring to that with our use of the phrase but it is a way of drawing in an audience and creating interest in our issue. The website will have links to all of the organizations that we think would be good places to volunteer, which is an argument of logos. We will be including organizations that we are involved in, establishing ethos.

Group roles

In a group I prefer to complete tasks, no matter how minute and make sure that things are finished. I am not as much of an ideas person as I am a "doer." I prefer to be told what needs to be done, do it and let the other group members do the creative thinking and actual presentation. I am good at delegating tasks and organizing people as well. I can separate tasks and make sure that everyone does their part and has an equal amount of work to do. I don't mind presenting but I would prefer to not be responsible for creating the presentation and thinking of the best means of presentation. If I have been given time to practice the presentation and know what needs to be said, I am capable of presenting.
