Avoiding Political Correctness in Your College Research Paper
Avoiding Political Correctness in Your College Research PaperPolitical correctness is a buzzword in today's college environment and political research has been dominated by it. Often, students will write a research paper that is a critical analysis of a political statement and the ideas of the stated party.In the name of political correctness, they will be pressured to tone down the discussion of the controversial topic or risk their grades being lowered. Not only does this affect the student who is forced to write this paper, but the teacher as well. It becomes difficult to teach if students are unable to formulate their arguments and attack the thesis statement.Students find themselves having to abandon their original goals in order to appease the political correctness. In other words, instead of defending their original thesis statement, they must write a politically correct paper in order to receive a passing grade. Students do not want to criticize their professors and the admin istration of the college, so they find ways to appease them. This practice makes the professor even more sensitive and he or she will continue to get tougher on the students, so that they may continue to pass out good grades.Many students fail to realize that political correctness is not the best idea. There are many other methods that would be better. Even though one might get some great work done on the paper, there is also the chance that the paper may never be accepted and one may even lose one's job as a result.The answer is to look at the underlying cause of political correctness and how it has entered into the studies that are being done. One thing that has become apparent is that politics and religion are heavily interrelated and students are now studying these two subjects because they want to influence the outcome of the elections in some manner. In other words, when students begin studying them, they make their political opinion the foundation of the studies that they are conducting.Justlike with religious politics, the next step is to study the bible and the answers that people seek to justify the actions that they take. You cannot just say that all religions are good and have truth in them and then turn around and study the religious foundations of all the different people that you are studying. This is exactly what happens, and a student who follows this path is going to come across as a false character.The best way to avoid the political correctness is to study one of the other subjects before deciding which one to study. Doing your research on other subjects before you decide which topic to study will give you a solid foundation for your paper and you will be able to attack any argument that you may come across. As a student, it is important to choose a topic that you feel passionate about because if you do not, you may be replaced by someone who studies the same topic.In conclusion, the best way to avoid political correctness is to do the rese arch that you feel passionate about. This will give you a good base to build a successful political research paper on. For students to be successful, they must first know their material well enough before writing a political research paper.
