A few of you incoming APE Lang students have asked about the summer assignment; specifically, what I'm asking you to read. I want you to find five op-ed (opinion-editorial) columns from major newspapers or news magazines, read them, and react to them (the details are on the handout you received at the end of the school year).
"But where do we find these columns?" you ask. You can find them in The New York Times, The Washington Post, TIME, Newsweek, and many other publications. Remember, you're not looking for news articles; you want essays about the news.
Here's one from Anna Quindlen on why Obama and McCain need to pay careful attention to a specific voting bloc this fall.
