Writing Standards:

The following instructions may seem finicky. Your adherence to them, however, will greatly help me to read and properly grade your paper.

  1. If it is to be submitted in printed form, the paper should be double-spaced. Use honest font size and margins. One-inch margins all around and 12-point type is a good norm. Using large fonts and margins to pad out a too-short paper is both obvious and upsetting to me.
  2. Number your pages. If you can't figure out how to make your word processor do it, then do it by hand.
  3. Staple the sheets together.
  4. Put your name on the paper.
  5. Remember: I expect students to produce written work that is focused, well-developed, organized, and relatively free of grammatical, punctuation, and spelling errors. Papers that fall short of this standard may be returned for revision. [ more ]
  6. Don't plagiarize. The availability of material on the Internet that can be easily copied and pasted has blurred the distinction between "plagiarism" and source. Text that you copy directly from somewhere must be placed inside quotation marks and attributed to its source. Plagiarism is considered academic misconduct. [ more ]
