Your essay should be between 4-5 paragraphs, including an intro and conclusion, and between 300-500 words. Do not include any direct quotations from the original text. Instead, summarize the position, and include a citation to the original. Papers with direct quotations will be returned ungraded. Papers with uncited direct quotations are instances of plagiarism, and will be returned with a failing grade.
Attach your Reading Summary as a .doc or .docx file only. For instructions about how to do this, or a link to word processing software, please review the syllabus. Submissions that are simply copy/pasted into the box will be returned ungraded.
