Shitting bricks here. Basically i have a 5 page essay due (on whatever I want to write about) in an hour and a half. I know, it's not that long. But all i can think about is how i'm going to get another project done and this seems like a far second to that. It's for a level 100 college english course and any help would be appreciated. Brain storming, an e-mailed essay that one of you guys wrote and have on your desktop, anything.

watch some Frontline from pbs for some inspiration. Hour long investigative documentaries on every topic relevant. Some are slow but most of their work contains very riveting and moving material. If you cant choose a topic this list will help.

the origin of hiv/aids. there are like four or five different theories on it, each you could wrote a paper about. i wrote a research paper on aids this semester and like four of the pages were just about the origin.

-why it's important
-broad reasons why people don't vote
-how to keep people "in the know"
-how to enforce it

I have a 15 page paper about racial and economic inequality in schools backed up by media sources and a 25 page paper about the Redlich-Kwong thermodynamic equation of state and its impact on fugacity.

Take your pick.

Write an essay on whether or not capitalism promotes or undermines individual freedom and compare and contrast views of McNally and Friedman.

pretty much anything. i don't think the paper needs a sources cited page or MLA citations in it.

weather or not you can put a price tag on education

if experiences are better than learning in a class room

Go back to 2nd grade and learn the difference between whether and weather. And don't ever try to make another comment on education.

how much do you lose per day if its late?

at this point you may want to take a day and do a good job rather than rush it and do a bad job. just a thought

FUCK YEAH.

my dads frat house had a whole room devoted to this.

they had drawers and files organized by class and by teacher, and had various essays written by previous members of the frat for access, as well as study guides created for test in the past and copies of the tests as well. unreal. they had stuff archived over the course of like 15 years, all you had to do was pull out three essays, grab portions of each, and build off of them a little bit and you were golden

that being said, ask Mike-O. he's a great writer.

I still do this. Whenever I get a month or two to write something, I still do it the last few hours. And I don't think I'd be able to do it any other way.

And the database of essays is a great idea! Do it!
