Welcome! This research guide was created for students in Dr. Rubenstein's SPRING 2025 Eng. 101 class.
This guide is a customized resource for this assignment.
The resources on these pages will help you:
Your assignment is to write a persuasive research paper on civil disobedience that answers the question, "Is it ever permissible to break the law?"
You are to find five scholarly sources and integrate them into the text of your paper. A scholarly source contains commentary and analysis about a topic.
Your essay should include documentation of your sources using parenthetical (in-text) citations and a Works Cited page using MLA 9 style formatting.
