Now the reader connects these attributes to Jennings" self which hurts her ethos and logos early on. Since this happened Jennings will have to work even harder in the rest of her essay to make up for the mistakes made in these first two paragraphs (297).
The attempt doesn't work though because the personal experience she uses in the skills gap section has little validness. She tells of grade inflation which makes students look like they are doing well when they are actually doing very poorly. "One-third of many high schools" students maintain 4.0 (straight A) grade point averages" says the shocked Jennings. She then goes on to say that her eighth grade daughter Sarah "is living proof" that grade inflation exists. She explains that Sarah can't even do simple math problems without the use of a calculator yet she manages to maintain straight A's. We do not know anything about Sarah; maybe she manages to keep these good grades because she copies off of the smarter students, maybe she has high grades because she always does the homework and gets credit for it but isn't mentally capable enough to understand it; we just don't know. Sarah also can't even support the figure because she isn't even in high school yet; and since when was Sarah the national standard for academic performance. Seeing as the reader now has all these questions about the validness of these assertions, they cannot be convinced that this is a true argument and Jennings logos is further hurt (298).

She never actually comes out and says that she is Catholic, but when she says, "A current survey on American religion fails to mention Catholicism" we can assume by her outrage that she is one.
