Bridget's feedback:

"Each of these mini-essays are focused, efficient, and convey control of the material. The unique nature of short essays as responses to prompts or questions will impact your rhetorical choices (venue, occasion, audience), so keep this in mind as you read my next suggestions.

First, I would suggest introducing each commentator by a full name; however, this may depend on whether you are mirroring the prompt's usage. Related, you may want to overview each first sentence to make sure you reassert the question in a way that shows command of the discussion via understanding of what is being asked; not being privy to the original questions, I cannot evaluate this, but those opening sentences appear fairly straightforward. Finally, I do recommend a last proofread to catch occasional minor issues (comma misuse, etc.), as well as a final check that all pronouns (particularly "it") are always used in a clear and obvious way that guides the reader's progress through the discussion."
