The short paper should be at least four typewritten pages but no longer than nine pages of text.  The paper can either be (a) some additional (background) information about an article relating to weather or climate that has appeared in the scientific media since 1990, or, (b) original work using a personal point of interest or one of the titles that follow.  Some examples of scientific media found in the SVSU library are American Scientist, New Scientist, National Geographic, Popular Science, Science News, Scientific American, and Smithsonian.     DO NOT COPY A PAPER PREVIOUSLY TURNED IN BY A STUDENT.  IF YOU DO, YOUR GRADE IS AN “F”.

The purpose of the paper is to provide additional information about a topic covered in the article or your original research into the subject of your choosing.  The paper must include a bibliography with at least three sources other than the article (if applicable) you are using and your textbook.  You may use any source of reliable information – books or parts of books, periodicals, internet and/or other computer resources.  I strongly urge you to follow accepted spelling and grammar rules, traditional footnote and bibliography listings.  Your grade will be based on subject matter plus content and presentation.  Three (3) points per spelling or grammatical error will be subtracted from your grade.
