I strongly suggest you pick one of these questions and research it well. Incomplete essays will result in deductions. Do not give vague words, use pronouns to cover up a lack of knowledge or vague descriptions thinking I am too stupid to realize you are covering up for a lack of knowledge. Also, do not print up website information and regurgitate it. I reserve the right to quiz you on your answer and make sure you understand. All this because I am giving you a good honest head start to research and prepare. In case you have forgotten, an essay is at least 5 paragraphs, though I hate to limit you to just five on questions of such seriousness.
Essay Questions to study:
Make sure you answer all parts of the question. You should check off the parts as you prepare them. Do not miss any. If it says "seventy examples" make sure you have seventy. 'nuff said.
