Term paper guidelines

Paper instructions

History is argument using the best evidence to back you up. You are to write a paper containing no less than 5 pages arguing a particular stance. Title pages and bibliography pages are not included in the seven pages.

History is best defined as a continual, open-ended process of argument, which is constantly changing. No question is closed because any problem can be reopened by finding new evidence or by taking a new look at old evidence. Thus there are no final answers, only good, coherent arguments: history is not some irreducible list of “the facts” but continually changing bodies of evidence.[1]

A few things to remember:

a.) YOU ARE TAKING A POINT IN AMERICAN HISTORY FROM 1865 TO 9/10/2001 AND ARGUING A POINT. YOU ARE TRYING TO CONVINCE ME THE READER THAT YOU ARE RIGHT. Your thesis should come at the end of your first body paragraph.

b.) A draft is not required, but people who turn in drafts tend to get A’s on the final paper.

c.) DO NOT USE WIKIPEDIA. I CAN TELL IF YOU DO.

d.) DO NOT COPY A WEB PAGE, PASTE IT INTO MS WORD, AND TURN IT IN. I WILL CATCH IT. YOU WILL FAIL THE PAPER.

e.) DO NOT USE FIRST OR SECOND PERSON (I OR YOU). USE THIRD ONLY SINCE IT MAINTAINS OBJECTIVITY. 2 PTS OFF PAPER FOR EACH SPOTTED USE OF FIRST OR SECOND PERSON.

f.) TIMES NEW ROMAN 12 FONT DOUBLE-SPACED. MS Word 07 does not use this as the default. I can tell when spacing is 12.1 and so on.

g.) Don’t use contractions. I’m aware of the irony. 2 pts off for every spotted contraction.

h.) ONE INCH MARGINS ALL AROUND. I’VE DONE THIS ENOUGH TO KNOW WHEN MARGINS HAVE BEEN MOVED IN TO EXTEND YOUR PAPER.

i.) NEVER ASK QUESTIONS IN YOUR PAPER. IT MAKES IT SOUND LIKE YOU DO NOT KNOW YOURSELF. DO NOT ASK QUESTIONS IN ORDER TO PROVOKE THOUGHT IN YOUR READER SINCE I AM YOUR ONLY READER. DON’T ASK ME WHAT I THINK. STATE YOUR HISTORICAL OPINION AND BACK IT UP WITH HISTORICAL EVIDENCE.

j.) FOOTNOTE OR ENDNOTE UNCOMMON KNOWLEDGE OTHERWISE IT IS PLAGIARISM.

a. Plagiarism=0 for assignment and is considered an honor code violation.

k.) No more than THREE block quotes.

l.) Needs at least FIVE sources, only two of which can be internet. RIGHT CLICK AND REMOVE HYPERLINKS.

m.) NEEDS A TITLE PAGE AND A BIBLIOGRAPHY AND AT LEAST SEVEN FULL PAGES OF TEXT.

n.) USE CHICAGO STYLE ONLY! IF I SEE INTEXT CITATIONS IT IS WRONG!

o.) There is a Writing Center in the library that can help!

p.) Use this webpage for footnotes (first) and bibliography page (second)

q.) THE PAPER IS DUE ON THE SPECIFIED DATE AT 11:59:59 PM
