Here's a link to your second short paper assignment.
The paper is due on March 23, when we'll begin a several day long group project. You'll be presenting your group's findings in class. Please have your paper finished on time, as the group project depends on your papers.

I'll go over the assignment in class, where you can ask any questions. Contact me right away if you have questions while you're working on the paper, and get started soon so that you have plenty of time to work!

Remember to treat everyone with dignity and respect.
