Format
- You must cite your work for this paper. Historians use the Chicago Manual of Style, 16th edition in crediting their work. You may choose footnotes or endnotes, but you must follow the CMS citation format. If you are unfamiliar with this style please see me and we can fix that problem.
- The paper should have a
title page with your name, date, H-360, and an original title on the
cover.
- The body of the paper
should be typed in a standard font and be 10-12 points in size.
- The paper should be
double-spaced. It should be
numbered, starting with the first page of text.
- MOST IMPORTANTLY this paper must be
free from every type of grammatical error or errors you can possibly
imagine. That will mean a rough
draft that is thoroughly scoured for typos, incorrectly spelled words,
incomplete sentences, run-on sentences, awkward constructions, wrong
words, and everything else you learned in grade school.
