They Say I Say, With Readings

Some English classes are using They Say I Say, With Readings, 2nd edition from 2012. We have one copy on reserve, and it's a popular item. We have two reserve copies of the 1st edition from 2008.

Don't hate me, but I've told several circulation students and staff that if a student needs an essay from the 2nd edition that isn't in the 1st edition, and the 2nd edition isn't available, the reference librarians will help the student try to locate the essay online or in another book in the library. I successfully did this twice in the last 30 minutes.

First you have to know the complete essay title and author, so I'm posting the TOC below. I included links to the three essays I've located. If I get around to it, I'll update this as I locate other essays. Now that I went to all this trouble, no one will ever ask this question again, but that's the way it goes!
