As a student at BYU, I know that there are many expenses that have to be covered before you can even start your classes. The expenses that a BYU student must cover: tuition, housing that fits within BYU Housing standards, food (whether a meal plan or groceries), textbooks, transportation of some type as well as the things that go with it (insurance, gas, payments, etc.), as well as clothes that keep them warm in the cold winters, and then still have money to cover emergencies that come up and various “fun” activities. With the price of our BYU tuition recently being raised, as well as all the other things we must pay for to go to college here, we should be able to save some money elsewhere, like in textbooks.
Life is Full of Trials, the Bookstore Shouldn't be one of them
We are Taught to be Fair in all our Doings, so why isn't the Bookstore?

I agree, prices are outrageous!
I like your title "Monopoly: BYU Bookstore Edition" the best and I think you did ok with your ethos but you could maybe tell how these high prices have affected you personally. Also, what do you think we should do to get the prices lowered? Good luck
I think your first title, "Monopoly: BYU Bookstore Edition" was absolutely fabulous. It was a real eye grabber, and it establishes kairos from the beginning. A lot of BYU students cannot afford the expenses of books from the BYU Bookstore, so this is a really good topic. My only suggestion is that you interview somebody, possibly a worker in the bookstore, that talks about their policy on textbooks. It would probably establish a better ethos for your paper. Good luck!
I loved all three of your titles, but the first one is the best. You used very good kairos too.
