The Professor Is a Dropout by Beth Johnson

The prof is a Dropout The Professor is a Dropout by Beth Johnson is about a woman who was told she was retarded and her move around of becoming Dr. Lupe Quintanilla. Lupe, a Mexican native came to America young where in school she would be deemed as un-learnable (retarded), she dropped out of school in the frontmost grade. Lupe continued her life, marrying and eventually started a family. When her children were deemed un-learnable as well she quickly took bodily function to ensure they didnt endure a similar fate.A precise glum Lupe was able to enroll in college where she earned her doctoral degree. In Chapter septenary of our textbooks we focus on purpose and tone. The reason for a particular race is called the purpose. There are three common purposes which are to inform, persuade or entertain. Figuring out the purpose of a passage can function the reader better determine the authors reasoning for writing. shadow is the writers feelings towards the subject he or she is writi ng about. but put tone is the writers attitude.The purpose for The Professor is a Dropout is to inform and the tone is determined. I really enjoyed reading this reputation, because its very inspirational. I think Lupe is and was a very determined individual who would no longer accept what people told her all of her life. After reading this story it makes me want to work harder to lead by example. I believe that everyone is a capable of doing anything as long as they put forth an sound effort. Lupe in this story is prime examples that if you work hard, never give up and believe in yourself anything is possible.
