Op-Ed Essay
When I first heard about the Op-Ed essay in class I was very confused. Talking to other people in class definetly helped me out. When I started writing the essay I was thinking about the MLA format. I was having trouble with my in-text citations, and I didn't know how to do the footnotes. Luckily we went over that in class. I really found it hard to stay at the limit of 750 words. I had way over that and tried to delete alot of things I didn't need. Hopefully I did good on this paper.
