**For this assignment, I am ok with just page numbers when referring to the text; for the world lit, however, you will have to do the proper citation. Yay.

Please keep thinking about your IOPs as well. A formal outline of the IOP will be due on May 13th. The sooner you start formatting a thesis, the more I can help.
