My email is an article from my daily life that showcases the aspects of the rhetorical situation. When I type an email it includes text, audience, and a communicator. The intended audience from this email is the Corps of Cadets. This is apparent because of the use of statements in the email that would appeal to the Corps of Cadets such as, “Join us for lunch in the PX(Pizza and drinks)…”, because the Corps loves free pizza and drinks. Also by the use of stressing the idea that joining this club gives members a fulfilling feeling by helping kids, which looks good on resumes as well as fulfilling the human soul. The communicator in this text is Chap Park. He is trying to inform the Corps of Cadets about the Character Counts club, and to possibly get some Cadets to join the club. I believe that this rhetorical situation was effective because I myself was interested in this club and attended the meeting, and the number of people who attended the meeting greatly outnumbered the number of people that Chap Park estimated would come.
