Each student will select one topic from the enclosed list of subjects. The student will research the topic and prepare a typed business paper, minimum of (5) five pages and a maximum of seven (7) double spaced pages (not including (a) page(s) for title page and bibliography), The student is expected to use four or more outside sources, at least three of which are Law Review/Journal articles. You must footnote the authority for your propositions using the Harvard Blue book citation format. One of the most common problems deals with students failing to properly footnote.
AMOUNT OF MATERIAL FROM OTHER SOURCES The goal of the paper is to have the participant select a topic of interest and research it in depth, using at least three law review articles, along with other material. While the student is expected to cite the ideas coming from these articles, and may occasionally use some direct quotes, the student should not have large segments of their paper cut and pasted from these outside sources. As a rule of thumb, if more than thirty percent (30%) of the paper are the direct words (or very similar words with minor shuffling) from other sources (even if the sources are appropriately footnoted), the student will receive no credit (a zero) on the paper. If the student takes a significant portion of their paper from other sources and does not footnote the appropriate authority, th
is will be considered plagiarism, which will result in immediate and severe disciplinary sanctions. This must be an original paper, not one submitted in a prior class.
While students should be citing outside authority extensively, their papers should not merely mimic one or two articles. This means that once you cite a source, it may be appropriate to cite it again in several succeeding footnotes, but as a rule of thumb, that same source should not be cited for more than five footnotes in a row. When the same source is cited repeatedly and successively, students will lose a significant number of points from their grades because they are not synthesizing and integrating all of the material they are presenting. Each paper will be submitted to TURNITIN.COM-directly uploaded under the assignment page to verify that it represents the students work.
The project is worth thirty percent (30%) of the students final grade. The papers are due in the final form by June 7th at 11:59 pm. The student will lose 10 points from the project, per day, for every day the project is late. There will be no exceptions due to business or family crises. The student should begin working on the project immediately, and deliver the project early if he/she believes there will be any problem with making the June 7th deadline.
