Avoid the first and second person “I” and “you” subjective voice in college level scholarly writing. As a rule, keep quotes to 2-3 lines maximum in these relatively short papers, and no more than 10-15% of the total paper.
Technical Errors: Late papers will be penalized, as will papers with technical errors, superficial and/or careless grammatical or content errors.

File Names: Please label and save all MS Word file attachments in the following manner: Your last name_Assignment Title (i.e., Smith_Paper # 1).
