The Battle for Public Education.
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- This essay won or received an honorable mention for The Boothe Prize for excellence in first-year writing. The Boothe Prize recognizes and rewards outstanding expository and argumentative writing by undergraduate students in the first-year Writing and Rhetoric classes, Integrated Learning Environments, and Thinking Matters programs. In each award-winning essay, student writers demonstrate clarity of argument, excellent integration of research-based evidence, and compelling prose style. In this essay, Madeleine Parker Cassic presents and then refutes arguments favoring education reform, school choice, and vouchers, instead calling for societal—rather than educational—reforms in public schooling.
