I am writing to you that I analyze Raina Kelley’s “Beauty is Defined, and Not By You” a short article which is one of the requirement article to determine we should or should not publish to the Shorthorn. In my opinion, we should publish the Raina Kelley’s article of the body because she had expressed the main point between the difference of beauty and appearance by using logo, pathos and ethos that consider to UTA community such as relationship, employment, health, and economic. It all relates to UTA living standard. Obviously, women and teen in UTA community are likely to read about this article than men do. By reading Kelly’s article, it helps students concentrate with their knowledge skill for future employee. According to author’s claim in “The Body” reading cluster, she expressed the beauty standard at workplace as totally unimportance, invaluable and she doesn’t care about the beauty standard at all at the workplace. But, the author point of view toward the experience and confident as well as education is more worthiness and meaningful than the good looking appears at the workplace. Then, she supported her claim appearing as there are many opportunities for all of us even though we aren’t attractive or beautiful and as a today, women have equal opportunity as men. Moreover, the author supported her claim along with the teen and women are spending less money on beauty products than before. These reasons suggested the students not to worry about the beauty standard at workplace and to focus on accomplishment with thoughtful mind. In addition, UTA seems to have equal gender student, mostly single and dating relationship, working students and limited income as well as diversity related to Kelley’s point of view reasons.

Some audiences are not spending less money on beauty product because there are many customers still go to salon and nail shop to spend their money for their beauty. Dressing nicely doesn’t mean only self-respect appearance and it is causing some people to show themselves as they care about their look. In my conclusion, Kelly’s article is relating to college students life style and encouraged the women not to just only care on their looks with the example of logos, pathos and ethos. She also has the research to prove her evidence and indicated her idea on the change of beauty standard as focusing on education instead of her looks. Therefore, it makes readers to focus on study rather on beauty as they read through her article.
