Write a formal argumentative letter aimed at convincing the deciding body (e.g. the voting members, the coach, the conductor, the director, etc.)

Imagine you are being considered for membership in a university group (fictional or real) with limited membership, e.g. a sports team, a sorority or fraternity, an honors society, a musical ensemble, etc. Write a formal argumentative letter aimed at convincing the deciding body (e.g. the voting members, the coach, the conductor, the director, etc.) that you are the ideal candidate for membership in this group. Your writing assignment must be 500-600 words in length and contain each of the following required components. Highlight (with color) each required component. Then provide identification information (details provided in parentheses behind each required component below) using footnotes.

Required Components:

1. Simple non-inferential statement (footnote: identify the specific type of simple non-inferential statement offered, e.g. opinion, report, warning)

2. Expository Passage or Illustration (footnote: identify which of these two options you have offered, e.g. expository passage, illustration)

3. Explanation (footnote: identify the passage as an explanation and identify/provide the explanandum)

4. Deductive Argument (footnote: identify/provide the conclusion, identify the argument as deductive, and identify the specific type of deductive inference offered, e.g. argument from definition, hypothetical syllogism)

5. Inductive Argument (footnote: identify/provide the conclusion, identify the argument as inductive, and identify the specific type of inductive inference offered, e.g. generalization, argument from analogy)

Note 1: Footnote markers must be placed AFTER the highlighted passage. The content of your footnotes should be included in your word count. Except in cases where you are asked to provide the conclusion or explanandum, you should not copy the content of your required components in the footnotes. Provide only the IDs and any specifically required statements (conclusion or explanandum) in your footnotes. The highlighting will tell me what you intend to be included in the required component.

Note 2: Your two arguments should avoid any obvious weakness (inductive) or invalidity (deductive). You should avoid obvious falsehoods in your piece. While you may embellish your character traits and accomplishments somewhat, make sure that you piece is realistic.
