Image Sum/Response Assignment

You hand in your first Summary/Response papers.

A few more examples of images to analyze, and then you may go look for possibilities. On Monday you should have the image you will write about. Be ready to show it to me or explain what it is. You do need to choose something that has a clear rhetorical purpose; controversy is good.
