In "Harrison Bergeron", "The most dangerous game" and "Initiation" all of the stories are focused on being an individual.
Harrison Bergeron is the individual in the story because everyone else is equal but him. In the story, the turning point is when Harrison gets out of jail. This is the turning point because he is different and this is a main point in the story. Without Harrison being an individual, the story would not be fun to read, or be interesting. What I am trying to say is that without Harrison or an individual there would be no story line or plot!
Reading "The most dangerous game" I thought to myself about the point of this story and the characters. I believe the General Zaroff is the individual in the story because he kills animals a different way than normal people. When the other character says "Hunting? Good god, General Zaroff, what you speak of is murder." This quote explains that General Zaroff has a unique way of "hunting" than the rest of the world. Now you can see why General is an individual compared to others in the story.
"Initiation" is a wonderful example of individualism because Millicent, makes a decision for her self that is representing an individual. Consider this; What if Millicent decided to go to the school? What would be the individual in that? Don't you realize that there would be no realistic conclusion if Millicent did not make the decision for her self to go to the school. When Millicent made the decision, she was being an individual and choosing what is best for her, not for others. She decided not to go to the sorority because of her friend back home, but she didn't want to go to the school either. Millicent was the individual in the story and if she wasn't then there would be no conclusion!
