Budapest, Hungary (CNN) -- Hungarian President Pal Schmitt resigned Monday, over charges that he plagiarized parts of his doctoral dissertation.

Protesters had called last week for him to step down over the accusation.

"When my personal issue splits my beloved country instead of uniting it, I feel it is my duty to end my service, and to resign," he told parliament Monday.

Schmitt insisted Monday that his conscience was clear.

He said Monday that he was prepared to go to court to prove that he was right.

"I have written my thesis with my best knowledge I had at the time, and I never intended to plagiarize. However, I will accept the decision of the (University) Senate that has withdrawn my doctorate. But this has got nothing to do with me being a president," he said Friday (Facsar p 1)

Schmitt, wrote his dissertation in 1992 for the University of Physical Education.

In January 2012, the Hungarian HVG weekly reported that a large part of Schmitt's dissertation was copied.

A university investigation also found that large parts of it were plagiarized. A committee said last week that more than 200 pages of the 215-page document showed "partial similarity" to other works or were direct translations.

The university stripped the president of his doctorate Thursday. The university said that the essay did not meet their standards.

Schmitt was elected by the parliament for a five-year term in 2010.

Germany's defense minister resigned last year in a similar scandal. (Facsar p 4)

Example:

I think people should have the right to own a gun and go hunting. According to Lucky Smith in Hunting Diaries, hunting is an old custom and it makes us feel more natural. We also get the benefits from cleaner meat and good exercise in the forest. “hunting is a way of life” (Smith 78)

You need to pick something that people argue about

Social issues work well because they are big and difficult to fix.

You already wrote about some issues such as the College Entrance Exam (GaoKao), PC Games, Education, and technology.

Remember: It doesn’t matter if you support the Entry Exams or not, they are often argued about by people, so you can choose either side.

Don't use a small problem such as a broken bicycle.

More Help

Challenge yourself!

You can choose something that most people will disagree with! That is the fun of argumentative essays!

Also, choose your own topic. I just listed the basic ones that I know.

You don't have to agree with me, or your friends, or anyone – I want to see original topics.

More HelpYour opinion must be clear:

Teenagers and Jobs has a bad title in my opinion. However, you can find their opinion in the thesis

“working more than 15 hours a week is harmful to adolescents”

You can write the same essay, but change the thesis “working more than 15 hours a week is very helpful for young people because it will teach them responsibility”

I was happy to see many different opinions about PC games, and technology
