You are expected to use a minimum of ten articles and books as secondary sources. Internet sources are not counted in this minimum of ten unless your topic is very contemporary. Be sure to keep a copy of your paper. No paper will be accepted without these materials. The paper, note cards, documentation and bibliography should appear in a standard, conventional format.
Plagiarism is, of course, the unpardonable sin.
Be certain that the paper is adequately documented. A one-paragraph description of the topic you propose to write on will be due Wednesday, November 11. This description will include a tentative thesis for the paper. You will also include a working bibliography along with the topic proposal. You are encouraged to discuss your topics with me before then.
