If you struggle with your writing skills, the Writing Connection in Building 6, Room 6337, is available to help you learn the rules of grammar necessary to write a clean essay. § The essay should be substantive.

Outside sources are not required for this essay. However, if you do use outside resources, they need to be cited appropriately: both through parenthetical citation and a reference page at the end. Any time you use ideas that you didn’t come up with on your own (out of your own brain), you should give credit to the source.
