Shannon Whitaker, as opposed to everyone else in this class, is a senior Theatre Arts major. She enjoys singing show tunes and watching as much Netflix as possible. When Shannon is not in Connecticut educating herself she is at home, in Maryland with the weirdest and coolest family ever. As a Theatre Arts major, this course started as a petrifying English nightmare to her. However, she grew to love this class and the challenges that accompany writing reviews. This Essay Writing course has helped her expand her writing skills and the ability to hold conversation with English majors. It has been a great semester in this course and Shannon looks forward to using the skills she acquired here towards other courses and inevitable debates that she finds herself in. In the meantime, Netflix is calling. Some of her written reviews are available on the left to read.
