Format Requirements

Writing assignments and handouts not following the requirements below will not be accepted and will lose several points per day (not per class meeting; see syllabus) until the requirements are fulfilled. If you manage to turn in an assignment that does not abide by the following requirements and I discover this after class, I will deduct a select number of points (determined at my discretion) from the final grade for the assignment.

Do not turn in a writing assignment until you have fulfilled all of the following requirements.

1. Typed

2. Double-Spaced* (throughout the entire paper: do not add extra spaces between paragraphs)

3. Standard White Paper

4. Standard Font

5. Black ink only

6. 1 - 11/2 Inch Margins (top, bottom, and sides)

7. Staple All Pages in Upper Left Corner (this includes all copies of handouts distributed to students for presentations;
do not hand out separate pages; instead, prepare and staple each packet before class)**

8. Type in Upper Left Corner:

Your Name or Names of Group Members

Course Name

Dr. Hill-Vásquez

Date (make sure you include the correct and current date)

Note: Do not turn in an essay with a separate cover page.

*Single Spacing may be used on Presentation Handouts

**Alternatively, if you have a two-page Presentation handout, you may "double side" it. Do not "double side" other writing assignments.
