   • Each responsive writing must be a MINIMUM 500 words, typed and double-spaced, ANDconform to the format outlined below. You CANNOT use a font that is larger than 12 point (I’d recommend Times Roman). Many students find that they can and want to write much more.
     • If your paper fails to meet this MINIMUM REQUIREMENT, you will receive a 0 for the assignment.
   • You SHOULD NOT AND CANNOT do any outside research to complete these assignments. Papers will be subject to originality analysis by Turnitin.com. If Turnitin.com shows that you have included outside resources, then you will receive a 0% for that paper.
