I MPORTANT D ATES Please remember to always have your calendar handy and make sure that you are aware of all of the important due dates for this project. Writing a research paper is not an assignment that you can successfully complete in one night. This research paper is designed not only to allow you to learn more about a topic of your choice, but most of all to learn a PROCESS. Each step must be completed and completed well in order to successfully move on to the next step. If you get even one step behind, you will immediately put yourself in a bad position.
