(3) Incorporates your own analysis and perception of the topic. Please ensure that the test is professional in its appearance. All answers must be typed; hand written tests will not be accepted. Please include the questions with the answers. Please also include this instruction page with the test submission. You can use bullet points where necessary to summarize important points.

You must persuade me that you know what you are talking about. The test will be due by 11:59 PM on Wednesday May 11th. Late submissions will result in a significant reduction of points. Please place your initials and 800 number on the top right hand corner of every page. Do not place your full name on the exam.
