Current Government Affairs Papers: Each week, students will submit papers focusing on current issues and affairs in government. Articles for this assignment can be obtained from newspaper clippings, magazine articles or web pages dealing with the U.S. government (national, state or local). Your article should not be more than two weeks old. On the last class meeting for the week, every student will turn in a paper (1-2 pages, typed, Word document, double-spaced, 10-14 font), which should consist of a summary of the article and your personal opinions/thoughts about the subject matter. Each paper MUST include a copy of the article you chose. A total of ten papers will be turned in, each paper worth ten points.
I will require two copies of your assignment. A hard copy, along with the article you chose, will be handed in to me at the last class period for the week
