The following guidelines apply to all essay assignments: Each short essay must be at least one page long
(12 point font, Times New Roman, double spaced) not counting headings
or citations. In other words, the text of your paper must be one page in
length. Superfluous wording or off topic wording will not be counted toward your page total.
Essays will be graded according to the quality of the response (is it
on topic, well researched, well written). Students will be marked down
for typographical/spelling/grammatical errors. Students should cite
their research in APA format (see FAQ sheet for more information).
Students may not collaborate on essay assignments- each assignment is to
be completed by the student, this includes sharing research
information. Please also see the honor code and statement about
plagiarism in this syllabus.
