CUSTOMIZED, PLAGIARISM-FREE PAPERSYou must proofread your paper. But do not
strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so
indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly.
Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read
over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as
necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious
errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.Use a standard 10
to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers
with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over
the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.Likewise,
large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space
between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at

margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to
use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be
hard to follow your argument.
