1. Your assignment must be written in APA format (complete with headers, title page, abstract, and work cited- NOT to be counted towards your 3 page minimum)
2. Please double-space your work, and PROOF READ YOUR WORK.
3. While this is factual and opinion based, please be sure to write academically. In other words, do not write your paper saying “well you know how things are…” or “I would never be caught doing xyz…”. You’re writing an assignment for college. Please write like you are!
