The Demons Of Coed Intramural Sports, Amanda M. Schleper Feb 2016

The Demons Of Coed Intramural Sports, Amanda M. Schleper

Line by Line: A Journal of Beginning Student Writing

The purpose of this assignment was to select a topic within the realms of gender issues, complete research in the library, and conduct personal research in the form of a survey or an interview. I knew I wanted to select a topic that was relative to me and my community. After talking to several of my peers, I realized there was a large controversy over the topic of gender specific rules in coed intramural sports. Thus, I decided to delve into the issue by undertaking it as my essay topic. Researching in the library and finding many scholarly sources as …


'Let It Go': Disney's New Approach To Copyright Enforcement, Kathryn W. O'Rourke Feb 2016

'Let It Go': Disney's New Approach To Copyright Enforcement, Kathryn W. O'Rourke

Line by Line: A Journal of Beginning Student Writing

After the research paper had been assigned, I began researching possible topics. Once I found an area that interested me, I narrowed down my research and formulated a working argument. There have been many writings about Disney's strict enforcement of copyright; I however took a different approach. I gathered scholarly and popular sources that ranged from background information, similar arguments, and counter points. For the rough draft, I first crafted an outline, then wrote the body paragraphs, and finally the introduction and conclusion. In class, we had a peer review session and my professor gave us constructive notes on our …


Black Widow: Avenger Of Feminism, Elizabeth G. Michalenko Feb 2016

Black Widow: Avenger Of Feminism, Elizabeth G. Michalenko

Line by Line: A Journal of Beginning Student Writing

The purpose of the assignment was to construct a well-researched argument regarding a socially different superhero and their role in society. The argument needed to address the super’s social difference, as well as how that social difference defines the super’s role. Through class brainstorming sessions and individual research, I determined that emerging gender issues in American society and culture would provide the impetus for my investigation. I searched for the quintessential female hero and found Black Widow from the Marvel universe. Black Widow defies the stereotypes of women and superheroes by living within the constraints of both worlds without succumbing …

Flawed Heroes, Flawless Villain, Lauren N. Geiser

Line by Line: A Journal of Beginning Student Writing

This assignment was a textual analysis of the graphic novel Watchmen. The two course objectives of ENG 200H were addressed: to “demonstrate abilities to read complicated and complex texts closely and critically” and to “explore the relevance of the Catholic Intellectual Tradition (CIT) in reading, writing, and rhetoric.” Reading Watchmen, we aimed to demonstrate how the novel is related to the CIT, either through connections or disconnections. Because the assignment is a textual analysis, I had to pay close attention to the context of Watchmen and the CIT, include a summary of the text though a specific angle, narrow …

Copyright Laws In The Music Industry, Elise M. Erhart

Line by Line: A Journal of Beginning Student Writing

This assignment was to write an argumentative research paper on a topic related to the course theme, which was Remix Culture. After browsing through a list of suggested topics and reading about a number of famous copyright cases, I finally chose my topic. My biggest struggle during the composition of this paper was figuring out how to organize all of my thoughts and weave them into the research that I gathered. Having both a peer review day in class and a conference with my professor was very helpful and gave me a fresh perspective on my work, making it much …

Changing Princess Peach, Christian A. Matico

Line by Line: A Journal of Beginning Student Writing

The main assignment for this paper was to gather sources from academia and various news sources and create a synthesis argument on a topic dealing with women in a certain field. All of the students chose a topic they felt strongly about and that showed how women have been encompassed in my field. Due to my admiration of video games, I decided to show how specifically female characters were being portrayed in popular titled games. A lot of research came from our presentations we had to do before hand on our topic and further research was done to gather statistics …

A Letter To A Struggling German Catholic During The Reformation, Rachel G. Zinck

Line by Line: A Journal of Beginning Student Writing

The assignment presented was to write a position paper in the format of a letter to a German Catholic friend undergoing an existential crisis during the Reformation period. First, we needed to analyze Martin Luther's 3 Walls of the Romanists, and then take a stance either choosing to follow or ignore Luther. In writing this essay, I spent a lot of time reading over Luther's arguments and reflecting on my own personal views and compared them with careful consideration. I was aware that the situation at the time was a matter of life and death for many, and attempted to …
