Th Oct 23 Due: Revised Project 1

2. We know that it requires sources, Are we limited only to the book or are we allowed other outside sources?
You must respond to/engage with one or more of the essays assigned from the book. You are encouraged to find additional sources to build your argument.
Remember, the assignment requires that you need to make both an ethos and a pathos move. I am not looking for a logos centered argument that does not seriously understand/connect to the values/assumptions/belief of the peoply you seek to convince. You already know how to argue using facts. This assignment is about learning to be persuasive.
Hope you had a good class today, and I will see you on Thursday.
Read: p. 256, A Lifetime of Student Debt by Robin Wilson + Chapter 9 (this is a short chapter_
