Paper Guidelines

Finals are among us, and so is the stress that comes with it.  I'm not sure how much I can relieve it, but I can try.  Here's a list of guidelines for the term paper, which is due (for a draft) on April 16:

  • Everyone should have their paper topics and an outline already.  If you haven't completed these or are not sure what your topic is, consult your Greece and Turkey "Manual"
  • Be sure to discuss who (or what organization) excavated the site, an overall history of the site, any legends associated with the site, a description of the architecture of each building on the site, and any significance these buildings had on Greek or Turkish life
  • If you're struggling to find sources, try heading to the library during the morning or afternoon and ask for help from a research librarian (you can ask whoever is working at the Circulation Desk).  They'll be able to help you find articles, books, pamphlets, etc. about your place.
  • The page requirement is 5-10 pages double-spaced
  • If you can, try finding field guides for your site.  This will have all the information on your site, including buildings and a brief history.
I hope this helps! If anyone has found a source or tip that helped them, post it in the comments!
