  4. Essay One:
    -Downtown Delaware restaurants and shops
    Delaware has a lot of unique restaurants and shops that people love to go to. A lot of these are special gems to those who live in Delaware.
    -Delaware Parks and Recs
    Delaware has many parks, especially around the OWU campus. I think that this will be a great way to see how the different people of Delaware use their rec areas.
    Essay Two:
    -How Computers Change the Way We Think pg.411
    I think this is a great essay that you can argue for or against. The way some people view how students use the internet may be different than others.
    -Meal pg.261
    I think this is an essay that you can research more on and find new information on.
