ALL students, your journal entry should address this prompt:

(SAT question) Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below.

People who move from place to place often say that they feel happier and more fulfilled than they would if they lived out their lives in one place. Other people say that spending a lifetime in the same community is actually a more rewarding option, because doing so enables them to maintain a strong network of family and friends–something that people who move around a lot may find difficult to develop.

Assignment: Are people who stay in the same community happier than those who move from one place to another? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.
