For your final paper, you will submit a revision of the
rough draft you submitted in Week Three.

In your paper, you will enter an academic conversation by
responding to a group of articles on one of the six topics on the class reading
website

Liberty and Justice for All or Just Some? Felon Voting
Rights.
Prescription Drug Ads: Disease or Cure?
Asylum on the Streets: Homelessness and Mental Illness.
Of Two Tongues: The Bilingual Education Debate.
Our Dying Oceans: A Cause for Alarm, or an Exaggerated
Problem?
On Auto Pilot: Self-Driving Cars.
Your paper will make an arguable claim that is in
conversation with one or more of the articles in the readings.

Requirements:

4-5 pages, double spaced (not including title page and
references page.)
12-point font.
APA Format. Please format your paper to all APA formatting
requirements. See this page on the library guide to set up your title page,
format your essay, and format your references page.
https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines/paper-format . Nearly all of
your courses in college will use APA style formatting, and you will be expected
to know the formatting rules in future courses, so get very familiar with this
resource.
Use two (minimum) outside sources. One outside source must
be from a peer-reviewed journal accessed through the NU Library.
Submit your paper in a Word doc, a .docx file, or a .rft
file only. (If you cannot do this, please contact your instructor.)
Grading:

The final paper is worth 100 points.
You can view the grading rubric on the submission page for
this assignment and on the Student Resources page.
Because this is the final paper, late work will not be
accepted.
Remember – your paper should be free of grammatical errors
and thoroughly proofread. Don’t forget to attach your file when you submit.
