2) Must be 2-3 pages, double spaced. (2-3 pages = 500-750 words—which means NOT one and a half pages)
3) NO TITLE PAGE.
4) There are many ways, but the easiest is parenthetical citing the author and the page. For example: (Burkholder, p. 119)
5) For this paper, you should use the readings, the lecture, and your lecture notes as a reference.
6) Do not plagiarize (copy another person’s work, copy from the book without quotation marks). If you do this, you will fail this assignment, and maybe the class. (the easier way, which causes less trouble, would be to just ask for my help!)
