Structuring a Proposal Argument
Currently, there is a parking shortage on the northwest campus of Santa Fe College campus, a problem that can be solved with a few blueprints and a local construction company. Santa Fe enrolls nearly 24,000 degree seeking students yearly; imagine all 24,000 of those students trying to cram into one tiny parking lot. In society today, everyone is trying to find the fastest way possible to get to places, including classes. Most students drive to school, meaning they need a place to park their car. Obviously, there are not enough parking spots for all the students who attend the college. There is, however, a solution to this troubling situation; construct another parking lot on the land that Santa Fe is not using for anything at the moment. Some might say that implementing the solution suggested is a bad idea because Santa Fe does not possess the funding for such a project at the current time. One might also suggest that the land could be put to better use. While both negative ideas are understandable, the parking lot is simply a necessity in order to accommodate those who attend the school. The benefits of the proposed plan are: 1. Students will spend less time searching for a parking spot and more time in class. 2. The parking lot will add convenience to students lives and with all the stress put on them in this day in age, convenience is most definitely a necessity. In modern day society, convenience is something that everyone strives for. Santa Fe should help their students feel more comfortable by providing another convenient parking lot for the otherwise stressed out students.

This is definitely true. We are in major need of more parking spaces and this is a great solution. Anything could truly help. I can't agree more with kids being late to class searching for a spot. It causes stress and road rage. More spots could definitely be the solution to help the student body.
ReplyDeleteWell structured argument!
ReplyDeleteYou fallowed the outline for your paragraph so well. All necessary parts like intro, scope, refutation, and evidence are present in your paragraph. You introduction for sure draws attention with its background information. I think you brought a reasonable causes and effects to argue that building a new parking lot is necessary. Having peace of mind that there would be enough parking spots for everyone, make students to feel more relax and have more convenience.
