 I want you to imagine an audience who has not read what you have read.  Rather, imagine a peer who is at the same juncture of life as you are, or a parent who may be wondering what you're learning at college, or someone who is generally skeptical of a broad liberal arts education where you're asked to read writers like William James, perhaps someone who thinks that education should focus narrowly on career training. Write a letter to any of these people.  Make a case to them for the value of reading and thinking about the ideas discussed by James, Csikszentmihalyi, Wallace, or Hardy.  Make this case by sharing the most compelling ideas and how they have been important to your thinking. (The best letters will be able to integrate ideas from multiple writers.)
