Homework due 7/28

We're deep into bibliography/paper-writing territory at this point. I can't decide if hiking or spelunking is a better metaphor. When you hike, you have a destination, but sometimes you end up someplace you didn't expect to go. That's definitely been happening to me as I work on my sample discrimination topic. When you spelunk, though, (or is that, "go spelunking"?) you have to needle up the courage to delve deeper and deeper and deeper into possibly uncharted realms. Ok, both of these metaphors could get out of hand, so I'll quit now.

At any rate, the important thing to know is that the rest of the session's homework will focus almost exclusively on your individual work. For example, tonight's homework...

Assignment
  1. Please write an annotated bibliographic entry for each of 2 of your sources. Please format it correctly so that I can let you know if there are any MLA issues. Formatting is a quick-fix kind of problem, so better to catch it now than when you turn in your final Project 3 next week.
  2. On the same page(s) as your bibliographic entries, please write down your working thesis. It doesn't have to sound pretty yet, and it may change, but it should be getting clearer and more specific with each passing day.
As any issues crop up with your research, please email and let me know!
