Exercise 117

Writing Application 1.1. Using Figure 3.1 as a model, write a similar introductory personal business letter to your instructor. Explain why you enrolled in this class, evaluate your present communication skills, name your major, describe the career you seek, and briefly tell about your current work (if you are employed) and your favorite activities. Give a hard copy of the letter to your instructor, or send it by e mail. Your instructor may ask you to write a first draft quickly, print it, and then use proofreading marks to show corrections before preparing your final copy. If so, double-space the rough draft; single-space the final copy. Turn in both copies.
