Assignment:
Write an answer for each. Please address each part of the question. State your ideas clearly.
Do not assume that "after all, the professor knows what I mean." The professor cannot assume to know what you know, nor can you assume that she knows. Take little for granted. You will be graded on your compilation of the material used in the book, THE COLOR OF JUSTICE and/or other sources. Be concise in your answers. "More does not equal better." However, brevity will not make for a high score. You will not be given credit for information that does not apply to the question.
