I got 3 for argument essay in PPP2. ( I believe I can get better score for this response, maybe I am wrong)
Can anyone please review this.
In the statement, from the president and administrative staff of Grove college, it is stated that Grove college should continue with its all-female education. They come to this conclusion based on the survey responded by its student and response from their alumnae. However, before this recommendation is properly evaluated, three questions needs to be answered.
First of all, what is reliability of the survey on its students and what is its source? It might be that survey is not a whole representative of the college. Perhaps, the survey was given by only 10% of the student count in the college and also, it might be possible that the survey is conducted online, and students who are profoundly active on the internet have given. Maybe, only the students who are keen on all-female education have given this online survey. If either of these cases have merit, then the argument is significantly weakened.
Secondly, is it possible to infer that alumnae who opposed coeducation will provide financial support? In other words, it possible to draw generalization that getting support from alumnae, would mean they would provide financial support. It might be possible, that out of the alumnae who supported all female education, only 5% would would be willing provide financial aid to the college. Well, if they 5% are from opulent background, then it provides support to the argument, however, if not, the argument does not hold the water.
Finally, what is the opinion of the teaching faculty towards continuation of all female education? It is possible that the professors are against this decision and are in favor of coeducation. Perhaps, if the college continues with its all female education, the esteemed professors of the college might leave and this would tarnish the reputation of the college and subsequently, there will be decrease the admits to the college and thereby, even lesser revenue. If this is true, then the argument is significantly hampered.
In conclusion, the argument, as of now, is flawed due to reliance on unwarranted assumptions. In order to fully evaluate the viability of the recommendation, the president and administrative staff should provide information for the above three questions.
