Argument Essay

Please choose from any of the following writing assignments for your essay using the rhetorical form of argument:


  • Should high school students be required to recite the Pledge of Allegiance at the start of each school day?
  • Should college students be required to perform community service?
  • Should public school teachers be required to pass periodic competency tests?
  • Should the legal drinking age be raised or lowered?
  • Should states be required to educate the children of illegal immigrants?
If you feel strongly about another topic, you are encouraged to pursue it with my approval. 

Essay should be a minimum of 5-7 full paragraphs and should acknowledge at least one opposing argument and supply factual evidence when appropriate. Due this Saturday, December 4 at midnight via email. Mail as Word attachments ONLY please, as I will not be able to open other types of files.
