E-mail from Student 2:
Hi Dr. Jones,
I am in your ENGL 101 class on Thursdays, and I have a question about the paper that is due next Tuesday. I’m not sure that I understand what is meant by the following sentence in the prompt: “Write a 10-page paper arguing for or against requiring ENGL 101 for all freshmen and provide adequate support for your point of view.”
I am not sure what you would consider “adequate” support. Would using 3 sources be o.k.?
Can I come by your office tomorrow at 2:00 pm to talk to you about my question?
Please let me know if that fits your schedule. If not, I could also come by on Friday after 1:00.
Thank you,
Jane Doe
