Note on Final Paper


Class:

  I’ve received a few queries on the final paper and wanted to send a note out to the group on the subject.

  Your final paper should be an extended argument and additional research that builds on your first paper and rewrite. Unless you have discussed with Ben bringing in a new topic entirely, the final paper should be a continuation of the work you have done during the semester. If you can bring in aspects of your City as Platform project that would be great, but it is not required.

There will be time for discussion in recitation. And I am happy to speak with anyone who would like to in lab Monday or office hours.
