Prompt #3

My Tentative Thesis Statement

The Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) should actively involved to figure out all illegal network operation in colleges because it gives access to other students to download the song illegally and to share the illegal file, which is not beneficial to college environment and even to the society.

Introduction and Claims

My paper intends the issue of illegal activities in college and how it affects the college environment and the society. In this 21st century the technology improves the standard of people’s life everyday. Despites of the positive impacts of technology there are many negative impacts as well in which operating the illegal computer programs that access download to illegal songs and free illegal file sharing in colleges. In this paper I am using three different claims. The first claim would be from the author Veiga, Alex where he had clearly demonstrated the fact that Students settle file-swapping lawsuit with music industry. The second claim would be from DeVoss and porter’s article where they had talked about the file sharing and it’s consequences in college environment. Unfortunately, I haven’t found the third claim that I would put in my formal paper. I am still in the process of doing more research to find the third claim.
