Tips to remember when writing:
-Avoid using first person. Do not introduce your ideas by stating "I think," or "In my opinion." Keep the focus on the subject of your analysis, not on yourself. Identifying your opinions weakens them. For example: instead of writing “I thought the piece was a good example of...” use “the piece was a good example of...” YOU are the author. The reader already knows and assumes that is your opinion.
-Always introduce the work. Do not assume your reading knows what you are writing about; therefore does not need to know the title and the author. Assume your reader knows nothing about the piece you are writing about.

III. Summary/Description of the Work: On Park Avenue, a street preacher was aggressively ministering to PSU’s students at the Park Blocks pertaining to his religious beliefs. The individual made instigating verbal altercations and allegedly called a female “slut” (Joy 623). The incident resulted in an uproar about how college administrators should promote a secure and safe environment for students. Nevertheless, based on the First Amendment, the preacher was exercising his right to the freedom of expression. PSU’s Chief of Campus Public Safety, Phillip Zerzan, confirmed that even though the preacher had harassed some students non-physically through his teachings, his speech was protected by the First Amendment. In addition, a PSU political science professor, David Johns, asserted that the preacher’s engagement in disorderly conduct, particularly threatening students, cannot draw the attention of the law since there were no noise complaints (Joy 625).
