Presentations

I though all of the presenters who gave their speeches today did a fine job. Nearly all of them took some aspect of Mrs. Webster's advice into their speeches, most noticeably in the opening and closing of their speeches. Nearly everyone used a quote, humor, or a rhetorical question as Nancy had suggested they do, including myself, and it worked very well in each of the presentations. Everyone had a good mix of appeals to logos with logical arguments and statistics outlining the needs of their charity and appeals to pathos in moving emotional stories about the needs of those served by each charity. The presenters mixed these aspects well to create a cohesive, persuasive argument that truly conveyed the importance of donating to their cause. I look forward to tomorrow's presentations and I know that I will have a very difficult time choosing which of the charities to allocate my donor bucks to.
