Read the excerpt from the odyssey. my heart beat high now at the chance of action, and drawing the sharp sword from my hip i went along his flank to stab him where the midriff holds the liver. i had touched the spot when sudden fear stayed me: if i killed him we perished there as well, for we could never move his ponderous doorway slab aside. so we were left to groan and wait for morning. what prevents odysseus from killing the sleeping cyclops?
he thinks he can reason with the cyclops in the morning.
he wants to make the cyclops his ally and friend.
he knows that they cannot move the boulder blocking the doorway.

hey there!

the reasoning behind university’s having students create prompts is to mainly get to know the person better. they want to know their interests, goals, personality,

it’s also a good way for the university to see the persons focuses in life. for example, if someone’s room is very organized and clean, usually all aspects of their life are the same.

so really, having people prompting to apply to a university is so the college can get more information about that person.

hope this you! if you need any more details, i’d be happy to
