Exercise 17: Admissions
Essay
Occidental College, a liberal
arts school in Los Angeles, was the first college that President Barack Obama
attended and the place where he gave his first public speech. (In his historic
first plea, he called on “Oxy” to disinvest from South Africa to effectively
protest the racial segregation of that area known as Apartheid.) Below is my
version of his admissions essay to Oxy.
“Hope is a powerful
weapon, and [one] no one power on earth can deprive you of.
-Nelson Mandela
Nelson Mandela’s
wisdom on the power of hope inspires me to pursue a liberal arts degree from
the acclaimed Occidental College. Oxy carries a great reputation for being a
progressive institution during many challenging times in our nation’s history.
From the opening of Hillside Theatre and student union in support of our troops
in World War I and II, to the granting of access for minorities to attend its
halls of higher education, and to the protest of the U.S. military involvement
in Southeast Asia during times of great controversy and confusion, Occidental
College solidifies hope for thousands of students who currently attend or have
attended its majestic campus on Eagle Rock. Understand that I, Barack Obama,
possess the admiration, humility, and resourcefulness to become one of Oxy’s
hardest working, open minded, and thoroughly hopeful graduates.

It is with my
utmost humility to ask you to accept my application . . . .
Sincerely,
Barack H. Obama
