<p>i have all my essays finished except one and I am really stuck.
it shouldn’t be that hard either.
it is claremont mckenna’s pick somone (fictional or non fictional) that changed world thought
i cant seem to get past the obvious (nelson mendela, chavez, dr. king ect…)</p>
<p>i dont need a topic but maybe just a long list of world changing people to spark my thoughts
i apperciate it!</p>
<p>If the topic is someone who changed world thought, then it will be hard to get past “the obvious” since there are only a limited number of people (present and past) who qualify. (You could no doubt google to refresh your memory.)</p>
<p>To pick, say, Ulysses S. Grant might be original and nonobvious but it would not be credible or defensible at a world level.</p>
<p>Imo, therefore, concentrate less on finding a nonobvious person and concentrate more on thinking well and imaginatively about someone who may indeed be obvious.</p>
<p>This is not an easy prompt!</p>
<p>I don’t think they necessarily expect the person to be someone with substantial worldwide influence. Here’s the wording of the prompt:</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Just think of notable leaders - business leaders, leaders in literature, leaders in culture, leaders of the ___ community, etc.</p>
<p>haha this actually helped.
Not like I expected it to but it did.
I understood the prompt, I swear. I just needed people to start listing names to get over writters block.
I was going to do Muhhammad, but it never worked.
Now I am going to do Cinderella and Betty Ferdain.
Thanks for your indirect help</p>
