Write Place

The Write Place is a convenient place for new students. The tutors help out a variety of ways, including proof reading which I find to be the most beneficial. I learned there are actually two locations for the Write Place and each location only allows one appointment per day.

LEO topic selection

I'm choosing Logical Fallacies as my LEO topic because many people make illogical arguments on a day to day basis. The more people are informed about logical fallacies, the more they'll catch the use of them in today's media and the less spoon-fed they'll be.

A common fallacy used in the political and media field is the use of slippery slope to turn an event or argument into an end-of-days event.
