This is probably the vaguest, most broad assignment I've ever received, and it's for a midterm. Juuuust peachy.
The topic for the essay/speech must be something school subject related (Omnibus, Rhetoric, Latin, Math, Science, etc.). The essay should be persuasive in emphasis, but should also inform the audience about the relevant matters of the topic.
Okay, so I've decided I want to do something with Omnibus, and at first I was thinking a comparison of Rome and America, showing how America is heading down a bad path, but that's waaaay too broad. So then I was thinking of just talking about Rome but changed my mind. Now I'm considering talking about the ideas and people which have influenced America, primarily in media and entertainment. Or maybe I'll just talk about how America's entertainment has changed morally in the last century or so.
The topic has to be selected, approved, and in thesis form by Friday. I really, really need help... I worked on this for an hour and a half last night and I'm still stuck.
