Barbers Causing Kids to Fail Out of School

Now don't blame me for this awkward or deranged topic I had to write about. These categories are what one gets when an AP American Literature teacher tells his students to write six different audiences, exigences, and purposes. Read this and take a guess of the audience, exigence, or purpose. (They should be pretty obvious!)

Many people are failing out of school due to not writing their papers. Barbers of the world have the opportunity to change the lives of these young black sheep of our society. One may ask themselves why barbers are targeted for this campaign. Studies have been shown that many kids look up to their barbers. Who wouldn't look up to someone who scares many children; with their sharp scissors in hand, in a dark lit room, with a grin as wide as a football players shoulders. If barbers share their papers written during Beauty School these young black sheep of our society could be inspired to start writing their papers.
