Juvenile Delinquents and Recidivism

To finish your journey in a timely fashion, it is highly recommended that you get cracking
on working on your thesis. I have found that the best way to complete the thesis is to
turn out a first draft of approximately 35 to 40 pages without front and back matter as
soon as possible. Before you know it, the semester will be over. With this in mind, try to
get a complete draft to me by ASAP. In this way, should corrections be necessary, you
can make them before the end of the semester in time for a September 2021 degree.
Your draft should follow APA guidelines and contain the following front and back matter:
Title Page (see below in blue), Abstract, Table of Contents, and References (or
Bibliography). Left hand margins should be 1½ inches and all others 1 inch. Please
double space and use Times New Roman, 12 pitch. Follow this order: Title Page,
Abstract, Table of Contents, Thesis, References. Number your pages as follows: Title
Page is lower case roman numeral i and not indicated on the page; Abstract is lower
case roman numeral ii and located center bottom (Note: Abstract is not listed in the
Table of Contents since it precedes it); Table of Contents is lower case numeral iii and
located center bottom; Thesis pages start with Arabic number 1 and located center
bottom; Reference page continues with Arabic numbers and located center bottom. If
you any Appendixes, they follow the Reference page and marked with Arabic numbers
center bottom.
