• All reading responses should be 3-4 typed, double-spaced pages.
• You will be graded on critical thinking, support, clarity/organization, language and MLA style (see Reading Response rubric for details).

MLA Style: ALL assignments must be submitted in proper MLA form, including in-text citations and a Works Cited page.  

Formal Language and Tone: Your paper must be written in 3rd person, present tense, formal tone. Do not use first person (we, us, our) or second person (you, your, you’re), or "one" (one = you; who/what is "one"?). Unless a professor specifies otherwise, college-level papers should always be written in 3rd person, present tense, formal tone.

DO NOT USE OUTSIDE SOURCES FOR ANY ASSIGNMENT IN THIS CLASS! Your only sources should be the assigned readings; I’m interested in your analysis of the readings ONLY.
