In Carolyn Segal's essay, her tone is very strong. She exemplifies good points in her essay as to what excuses college students use just to not hand in their assignments. I agreed that the Family excuses are the most common among all the other excuses. Her tone might have been strong, but at the same time it was also soft, because she did not sound angry as she was explaining the excuses that people use. As she was explaining the excuses, there was no anger in her tone, but there was certainty.
Segal might change her tone by becoming angry at her students, and explaining how she hates all the excuses that her students give her. Her tone might also change by becoming upset with her students by being tired of all the excuses she receives. I know that if i was the teacher and my students gave me crazy excuses about why they could not hand in their papers, i would not write an essay with a good attitude. I would be extremely upset and angry, and let all my anger out as i was writing.
