In Class Writing 2


The second I leave my room to head to class, I encounter visual rhetoric. The girls across the hall have a flyer of their door to vote for the hall council. It has bright colors and is very creative. Then I continue to walk down the hall and there are even more posters and flyers to look at. There are informational flyers on the RA’s door about fun things we are going to be doing and about programs we are going to do as a floor.  The bulletin boards are covered with information too. Leaving the building there are newspapers with color to get my attention. Everywhere I look there is some type of flyer for something new going on around or even off campus. Sometimes the flyers are even on the ground. Without the flyers I would never even know about half the stuff I find out about. Some of the buses that drive by have ads on them. I have to read lots of textbooks for my different classes I take and they all teach me something new. Watching people walk by shows me new things as well. Shirts have bands on them that I have never heard of and maybe they are of companies that do good things for the community. If I’ve never heard of it, their shirts make me more aware. Without visual rhetoric it would be very hard to stay in the loop of everything, especially on a college campus.
