Write a research paper, the research paper must address a legal issue raised in this class or the class readings.

If you opt to write a research paper, the research paper must address a legal issue raised in this class or the class readings. Also, a research paper must do more than summarize your findings. Instead, your research paper must have a clear thesis. A thesis is a statement that you seek to prove with evidence in your paper. Because this class is a Legal Studies class, you should limit your evidence to legal sources, i.e., cases, law review articles, and other primary and secondary legal sources.
