Final tips

Get some sleep. No mercy will be shown for those students who "pull an all-nighter" for what amounts to only 600-700 words of writing (Parts A-B together). Let's get real here, you are not typing up a 25 page research paper from over a dozen sources.
You are running out of time to help your participation grade for the first quarter. Come to class alert and ready to discuss tonight's reading.
Thanks and good luck.

When I use the citation site do I have to leave the
"Amazon.com: Books. N.p., n.d. Web. 23 Oct. 2012. ." on the end?

Do we need to make the headings in Part B bold? As in...
B. Summary of Evidence
Origins <---- this bold?

If we didn't get the chance to run our IA by you in class, can we send it to you in an email so you can look at it quickly and tell us if we need to fix anything?

Check your email.

For the word count for Part B we don't include the word count of Part A, correct?

I lost a lot of respect for Jefferson when I heard about his affair with Sally Hemmings. This article, however, sheds some light on the facts and comes to the conclusion that there is not evidence supporting this claim:

Do we need to include our topic headers in the word count? Like "Economic Value of Slave", and "White and Black Relations"?
