Final paper: Since this is a survey course, the final paper entails a wide range of choices
depending on the interest of the particular student. The goal of the paper is the following: 1)
Capture a summary of the important global issue; 2) advance a thoughtful analysis of the
problem; 3) relate the subject matter to the course; and 4) incorporate at least four different
sources you have found on your own (not from the class); 5) possibly advance a solution to the
problem in the concluding paragraph(s); 6.) and reach six pages in length, not including
reference list. This assignment is to not only prepare you for future university research, but also
assist students with navigating through the library’s vast resources, most of which are often
unbeknown to university students.
Paper Expectations: The final paper must be at least six pages in length, not including reference
list (essentially, you have to reach the sixth page). Tables, photos, abstracts, title pages, content
pages, etc.
