Reading through your research plans this week, I’ve noticed that several people have listed newspapers or magazines for their sources. While it is not inappropriate to use some information derived from periodicals for your papers, please note that newspapers, magazines and general-interest web sites do no qualify as “indisputably academic” sources.

If you haven’t yet reviewed this post from last week, please do so in advance of turning in the first draft of Project 1 this week. Also, you may also find this resource from Cornell University useful.
