english argument essay Legalizing marijuana

Write a 500-750 word essay using argument as the chief method of development.

The body of the essay is 500-750 words. The word count includes those words from the first word of the introduction paragraph to the last word of the conclusion paragraph (not the heading or outline words). Choose a topic that can be discussed in depth and detail within this requirement. This is a test of your ability to narrow or broaden a topic appropriately for the purpose!

• Include an outline as the last page of the essay. This is different than MLA style, which requires the outline to be the first page of the essay, but putting the outline last makes page numbering easier because you do not need to switch between i, ii, iii… numbering and can use only 1, 2, 3… numbering. The first page should be page 1 and the outline should be the last page number.
• THREE (3) academic research sources are REQUIRED. Use MLA Style for in-text citations to cite sources inside the essay and use MLA Style for the list of works cited to cite sources on the works cited page. Refer to the MLA Style resources for additional examples and explanations.
• Use MLA Style to format the essay. Specifically, remember to include a heading on the first page, a header with your last name and page number on each page, and double spacing. See the MLA Style Resources for an example essay formatted according to MLA Style!
