If the two outlines in your text book do not seem to fit your topic, please go online to the Owl of Purdue for further examples of outlines.

2. I will be forced to give further written assignments in Writer's Choice if you continue to chat instead of work during the class period. I cannot write your papers for you.

3. Please email me your rough drafts as soon as you can. All papers handed in must be submitted to my email address, as well. This is to avoid any chance of your saying I lost your paper.
