Scale for Determining Cumulative Quiz Grade:

Optional Short Paper: As I announced in the syllabus, I am giving you the option of writing a short paper (between 3-5 typewritten pages). The paper can be focused on any of the questions for review that we have had since the beginning of the semester. This also includes questions for review on Slide Lists we haven't gotten to yet.

This is not a research project. I am expecting you to focus on the question for review. Pay careful attention to supporting your points with specific evidence and articulating the art historical significance of your points.

You are not required to do this short paper. This Optional Short Paper is due on Tuesday, May 6 at the latest.

The TA in this course is Nina Papillo. You can contact her by e-mail at: PAPINT99@ONEONTA.EDU
