The essay should follow the classical organization on the side board and have a variety of appeals (logos, ethos, pathos). The essay does not have to represent a proposition of policy. It may advocate a value. It should focus on the central word you have chosen for the Modes Project. See the Modes Rubrics under the files for this class
