1. Describe specifically how you would interact with this person—is he/she a professor at your university? a fellow student? a leader? visiting campus?
2. Include specific quotes from the actual person—you can creatively use these as you wish, though. For example, you might love to have Martin Luther King, Jr. as a professor, and you might use a quote from his famous letter from a Birmingham jail as a quote he might say in class one day.
3. Explain why you have chosen this person.
4. Cite at least three relevant primary sources for your quotes. If you are unsure what a primary source is, please check with me!
I would choose Franklin D. Roosevelt as a roommate. He was the president of the United States of America and created the New Deal that eventually got the USA out of the Great Depression. Just this alone he would be a good roommate to have because he would be able to help me out with not only school but with developing my self as a person. The Social Security program adjusted the child labor laws so children couldn't work long hours and only when they did not have school. I could see him as more of a leader but i think he would be a great roommate to have in college.
