    The Cornerstone Seminar is the first college class that I have taken in eleven years, so what can I say, I learned a great deal, or in actuality… I am sure relearned. I was a continual college student for a period of six years either part time or full time during the early 2000’s, but I muddled around and changed my degree four times. Hey – I want to know everything about everything – and that’s a big task! It’s an annoying peculiarity about myself that I am attempting (yes, this is in present tense) to overcome. I have genuinely enjoyed the class and am appreciative of Dr Clermont-Ferrand for her attentiveness and approachability.…

    The uneven distribution of wealth in a society is explicit but the rationales behind it are implicit. Gary Becker and Kevin M. Murphy, both economists, tackle the positive aspects of income inequality in their article “The Upside of Income Inequality” featured by The American Enterprise Institute. Becker and Murphy argue for the positive correlation between income inequality and education levels. With background information of the publishers and the authors to cater towards credibility, Becker and Murphy are able to substantiate their claims with statistics and present their perspective with specific diction and syntax. “The American Enterprise Institute (AEI) is a nonpartisan, nonprofit, 501(c)(3) educational organization” (aei.org).…
