In addition to the exams, all
students will be required to write two three-page term
papers on articles that they
must read on their own. You must choose one article to read for
each paper. I want to see
three pages or more of writing in each of these papers. The term
papers should be typed and
double spaced, using a Times New Roman font of 12. There
should be a title page and
one-inch margins should be utilized throughout the paper. Students
will be given a list of
articles to choose from that will be posted in the class web page. All of
the articles in the list will
be posted as PDF files in the class web page. You should be able
to open each one to look at an
article. You must not use other sources to write these
papers. These papers must be
submitted as Microsoft Word file attachments in the
Assignments page of the class
website by July 21 and July 28. I will not accept any papers
that are sent to me by e-mail.
I will not accept any late assignments or extra credit work. In
regard to the term papers,
students need to discuss what is the article about, what is the author
trying to argue, and what are
your thoughts. I will not accept any late work. Also, please make
sure to use Microsoft Word
when you type your papers. If any other word processing program
is utilized, I may not be able
to open your file and grade your work. Unless I indicate
otherwise, I take off one
point for each error that I see and that includes grammar, punctuation,
spelling, errors in spacing
and incorrect margins. I also do not want to see any quotes or
quotations in any paper that
is turned in to me. I take off two points for each quote that I see
in a paper. Also, plagiarism
will not be tolerated. Anyone committing this offense will be
given an F in their paper. Any
paper that you turn in to me must be written entirely in your
own words.Last but not least, I have posted a sample paper in the class web page, so that
everyone can see what their
paper should look like. The sample paper is also there so
that anyone can see exactly
what I want
The
article Letter From a Birmingham Jail
by Martin Luther King Jr is about African Americans' pursuit of desegregation
in the South. King argues that the condemnation of the clergy towards the
direct actions in Birmingham and King’s involvement in them is misguided and
curtails the achievement of just laws and desegregation in society. Therefore,
this article presents various thoughts on African American pursuit of
desegregation in the South and the role of the church and its leaders in
curtailing these efforts leading to the prevalence of injustice in society.
