Short essay instructions

You must submit your essay at the time of your recommendation. It’s as important as any other part of your grading process, so you must follow the outlines set here. If it’s incorrect when you hand it in for your recommendation, you will have to wait until the next grading date. To avoid any problems be sure to bring your essay to class at least a week ahead of time, so that it can be reviewed.
