1. Write an introduction, which clearly identifies the topic of your paper and the issues which you seek to illuminate. The introduction should include the thesis or basis of your paper, and a very preliminary overview of the evidence you will use to support it. Finally, the introduction should include a statement that identifies what your paper contributes to our understanding of administrative law (in other words, why is the topic of your report important?).
2. The body of your report should be dedicated to support your thesis statement with claims gleaned from your research (into what others have written on the topic; data that you have gathered), readings from the course text, discussion boards, and/or case law, interviews, law review articles. Please cite your references at the end of your report. Please include at least 5 references to support the thesis of your paper.
3. Conclude your report by recapitulating your thesis and explaining in greater detail the significance of your findings. If you would like, include in your conclusion some questions or claims about the topic and/or specific which you’ve written. If you believe more research needs to be done on your topic, be specific about what kind of research and how you think it ought to be done.
I strongly recommend that you proofread your paper several times to ensure that you have no spelling, grammar or punctuation errors and to ensure that your paper flows well and is organized.
PLEASE USE FOOTNOTES and proper Bluebook citations! See attached for more information on footnotes.
make sure that you make the connection between your agency and topic with Administrative Law and Policy
