Bard College Supplement (Warning: Snarky)

<p>Would anyone be kind enough to read my Bard Supplement essay? I chose to answer the Seneca question which I'll post below. I'm wondering if I should send this essay or give them an old analytical essay I wrote in school, so any feedback would be great. I just want to know if I'm being too snarky/playful about the prompt.</p>

<p>THANKS!</p>

<p>Prompt:</p>

<p>"The Roman philosopher Seneca, writing in the first century, wrote a set of letters of advice to a young friend. In the 23rd letter he wrote, "Make this your business: learn how to feel joy...true joy, believe me, is a serious thing." Write a short response to these thoughts, indicating if you wish, the extent to which you may have come to realize that Seneca was right."

<p>Hey Mentos,
Did you just take off with my essay? I didn’t get a response. I would be really disappointed if you just stole my supplement. Please respond or I will assume the worse.</p>
