Take a clear position and argue it. The term paper and its thesis must present a strong, controversial argument. Employ the skills required in Essays I-IV to illustrate, to compare, and to show causes and effects. An example of a strong thesis would be: “AIDS is a deadly disease spreading out of control. The U.S. Government should increase research funding to search for prevention and cure” or “The Federal Government is wasting money on AIDS research; the disease can best be prevented by behavior modification, so more money should be spent on searching for cures for cancer, heart disease and diabetes.” Each statement is arguable and might result in a good paper. Positions such as: “Some people favor increasing money for aids research, while others feel more should go toward cancer research” are not acceptable for this essay. You must take a stand!
Furthermore, there must be some rational potential for disagreement on your stance. “Slavery is wrong” or “Child abuse is wrong.” are not debatable issues. See PHHB Chapter 7 and Successful Chapter 20.
Use a variety of scholarly sources to argue your thesis, but be certain that you control your argument, and that your research material doesn’t take over. Do not put two quotes back to back. Use an ellipsis when necessary. Comment on and integrate each piece of evidence you supply before proceeding.
