Use of Figures of Speech
The author employs various figures of speech in the piece which helps in passing on the message successfully to the reader. The use of rhetorical questions is significant, for example, "so what now? Dining halls? Whack," "People writing bomb threats in the bathroom? How cute." The use of rhetorical questions is not sufficient, and there is no adequate fulfillment of the role. The author's rhetorical questions should reflect and help the reader to establish the theme of the piece. The author, however, employs the use of metaphors and similes appropriately, and this helps the reader to create a mental picture about the issue or feature being discussed. "It feels like a warm hug on a cold day." This simile shows that the experience of the new place is welcoming and one feels home despite being far away from home. "Best college town in the Pac- 12. It looks like the middle of November, Leaves falling, Trees changing colors, Pumpkin Spice on a Sunday morning." this metaphor also creates a mental picture of the beauty of the new place as the eve of winter.
Effective Aspects of the Piece

The author should also employ alliteration and repetition to bring in a musical effect to the article and thereby keep the reader attentive to the piece. The author should also consider setting the piece into paragraphs so that each of the sections will carry a specific topic regarding the theme of the story.
