For this final writing project, you will write a researched argument about an issue affecting your future career field, your major field, your community or anissue described in the readings you've done from the book. You may also pick a very specific subject that you're interested in. This paper is your own argument, but you should take into account what you've learned during this course: begin by showing the conversation your paper is responding to ("they say"), have a clear statement of your own argument ("I say"), include quotes and incorporate them smoothly, point out possible objections to your argument, use appropriate transitions, and explain why the issue matters. You might also con- sider adding metacommentary and finding ways to include your own voice even though this is academic writing.
