Topic: What Is the Ideal Society?
Assignment: Take a stand on what constitutes “The Ideal Society,” giving
evidence to support your position.
You must incorporate three readings from the textbook. If you do not quote from or paraphrase three readings, you will not pass the essay. Likewise, you are expected to engage and really “use” the readings–in other words, to make an A on this assignment, I expect more than the required three quotations from, or paraphrases of, your sources.
Length: 5 pages + works-cited page (if needed). Note: I deduct up to 20 points from your grade for papers that are under the minimum page count.
