"Learning to shut up." Opinions Column, The Brown Daily Herald, 21 October 2008.
Sigh. This is one of my weaker columns, in part because I don't think there was enough material for an 800-word piece, and partly becauseI wrote it while I was still very frustrated with a few moronic fellow students. One thing I've learned is that it's best not not to write opinions columns while tired, frustrated, angry or occupied-- they're rarely as cogent or polished as the pieces I write when I'm in a better mood.
I do believe that I had a valid point in writing this column, situated somewhere in the middle of the piece, but I'll leave you to divine it for yourself. I need to learn how to shut up and let my writing speak for itself.
