Your grade will consist of three exams and a research paper. The exams will cover material from the readings, lectures and presentations. Include at least two citations from the Latin American Studies web page. A late paper will lose ten points. Turn in a paper copy and one on disk or by e-mail.
Makeups are different and considerably more difficult than the regularly scheduled test.
