Every student at ASU comes from somewhere. A person’s home country or hometown affects who they are: their slang and accent, clothing and job choices, behaviors and beliefs. For your first paper in our class, you are to analyze your home and its influence on you as a person. Does your favorite food relate to a celebration your family enjoys? Are you studying to work in field that is important to where you live or influenced by the activities there? This paper will need an introduction with a thesis statement, at least three body paragraphs, each with their own topic sentence, and a conclusion with a “so what” idea.
