As we addressed in class, this course invites you to engage in public debate and discussion; therefore, as an opening exercise, please write a brief (2-3 page, or thereabouts) essay that describes and argues a claim that is important to you. Consider this: if you were to become known for advancing a particular cause or for trumpeting a particular issue, what would it be? What matters to you enough to talk to others about it? What might be your own personal "soap-box" argument?
Please turn in your typed essays in class on Thursday, January 22. See you then!
