Odd Essay Prompts -- How to Answer?

College Essays
1

<p>I was invited to apply for the University of Florida Honor Program, and I have to answer one of the following questions:</p>

<ol>
<li>Tell the story of Chester C. Cluckington, the first chicken to cross the road.</li>
<li>Are we alone? </li>
<li>Who was the better tree climber, Napoleon or Attila the Hun? </li>
</ol>

<p>I’m not planning on answering the second one. What I’m wondering is though, is the University expecting an equally silly response or a serious answer? I mean, how does one go about answering any of these questions.</p>
