Persuasive Guidelines and Topics

Be sure to clearly explain your point of view and list logical reasons and evidence to support your argument. Give clear examples that illustrate your points. If your support or evidence is from a source or sources, be sure to cite the work using MLA style and formatting. (Check Purdue Owl for guidance/assistance).
