Civic Responsibility

Papers should be 2-3 pages long, double-spaced with 1 inch margins, in 12 pt. font. Papers will be submitted online, through blackboard. Late papers will be penalized 10 points for each late day. You must comply with UHD’s policies on academic honesty; any violation will result in a zero on this assignment and possible failure of the course.
You will be graded on whether and how fully you have answered the question, as well as the clarity of your writing. For a review of grammatical rules, I highly recommend Strunk and White’s Elements of Style.
