it would be easy if I could just bullshit and lie and write it from my noggin, but the fact that I have to actually reference these journals is killing me
should I just take the L and never go back to class again?

No shit dumbass but that would be anecdotal and would defeat the purpose of research and forming an argument

Yeah, just drop out and fail. You'll fail anyway, why waste their time.

I'm pretty sure I could preserve a solid D

what do the barcodes mean ?
>>36514132
scan them and find out
What is the paper on? Maybe we can help.

Good luck OP. If it were me I'd buy a shit load of 5 hour energy and red bulls and just work through it.

does implementing anti-hate speech laws infringe on personal liberties or is it necessary to ensure safety of oppressed groups
I have to take the "pro anti-hate speech laws" side
it's an easy enough argument to make but the problem is filling up 9 pages with peer reviewed evidence
>>36514193
Any evidence on that subject would be pure opinion. You can't prove that banning people from saying "nigger" in the workplace helped improve how people treated blacks.
There's more to it than just limiting what people can say.
Work that into your paper as a fuck you to the person who gave the task.

If it helps, I wrote a 2000 word essay 3 days before it was due in a third-year class even though I'm only first year and I didn't use a single 'scholarly' reference, bullshitting the whole thing still got me 52%

>murrican community colleges
jesus. Just write the typical leftie bullshit, blah blah internet nazis, blah blah hurt feeling blah blah fuck drumpf
>>36514193
This is some pretty mid-level shit.
If you can't handle it, then you should drop out
>>36514741
>community colleges
yessir
that's kind of why I'm not in 100% panic mode, just like 75%
it's not the end of the world if I fail but I'd also like to not piss away $600 or however much this class was
>>36514766
if I actually did it over the course of 9 days like I should have, and actually read my sources, it wouldn't be that bad. but I procrastinated again, because I'm a human turd.
I know that feel, I have a 140 character essay due in three weeks and I'm pretty stressed out.
>>36514193
Sacc up
>>36514193
Just tell the teacher it's against your religion to argue this. Personal opinion now matters less to people than the aspects of a person they can't change.
>don't do any assignments except for the first
>miss all but 1 test
>don't even know grade for the class
oh well
>>36515732
your bad grades can't hurt you if you never check them
>>36514094
in college and uni, a D is a failing grade
>>36517392
depends on the class and program
>>36517512
I've had classes where if your grade dipped below a B you were auto dropped
OP will never make it
>>36514063
uni is a stupid fucking meme
