Questions in Class.

1. What will my readers care about this issue?
I think that the readers will care about this issue that I'm researching because lots of people are effected by Greek life than ever before. For example, many more children are going to college and since most colleges have fraternities and sororities, it will be something that is around them. Also, parents, grandparents, etc. have experienced or been in a fraternity or sorority so others learn more about Greek organizations. I believe that the readers will care because it relates to them and can put themselves in the same situation.

2. What will my readers want or need to know about this issue?
I think that my readers will want to know the history of my sorority, the types of things we are involved in, the inside working of it rather than just the party scene, and the stereotypes that arise. It is important to know these things especially in making the decision of wanting to join a greek organization. It's important to at least know a little about a topic before making an ultimate decision.

3. What do my readers already know about this issue?
If they are non-Greek, preconceived notions or assumptions and if they are Greek, they know pretty much everything that's going on. To non-Greek members, many people have their ideas of what a sorority or a fraternity is like, basing in an array of correct answers to complete stereotypical ones.

4. If I am trying to persuade my readers of something, how easily will they be persuaded?
Hopefully with my insight they will be very persuaded to not judge organizations so quickly and see what they are really about. Although I know I cannot change everyone's opinion, it will be rewarding to see if I can at least change some people's views on somethings and make them not think so negatively.

5. What will my readers use my writing for?
In choosing if they want to join or learning about sorority and fraternity life and the good things that can come out of it (ex. opportunities, etc.).
