The Department of Political Science has changed the senior exercise Option II to revert to our previous practice, with some minor modifications. Students may seek advice on preparing Option II papers from individual faculty members of their choice.
Advice can include responses to outlines and bibliographies prepared by the student.
There will be no general advising session in the Fall. Deadline for submission of Option II paper is Friday, December 1, 2000. In some cases, the two faculty members who grade the Option II essay may ask that it be rewritten to meet the standards to pass or for distinction. Rewrites will be at the discretion of the faculty readers only. Deadline for submission of second chance Option II papers is Monday, January 22, 2001.
