Your essay must be written in compliance with Kean University\u2019s Academic Integrity Policy. You are not required to utilize source materials in this assignment. I want to see evidence of your ability to think creatively and imaginatively about the essay question, not a demonstration of your skill at cutting and pasting from the internet. If you decide to draw on material that is not a product of your own brain, this material must be cited in accordance (more or less) with a standard referencing system (e.g., Chicago, MLA, APA).

All words and sentences that are taken from another source \u2013 e.g., a book, a journal, or a website \u2013 must be put in quotation marks. The author, source, and page number of the quote should be identified in the body of the text, immediately after the quotation.<\/div>\n
Here is an example of how you can do this: James Rachels says that \u201cDarius, a king of ancient Persia, was intrigued by the variety of cultures he encountered in his travels\u201d (Rachels 2006: 406). The same goes for paraphrased material \u2013 that is, material that is appropriated from another source but rephrased or reworded. For example, James Rachels notes that a king of old Persia, Darius, had a keen interest in the many cultures that he discovered while traveling the globe (Rachels 2006: 406).<\/div>\n
Full citations for the sources you\u2019ve used must be included at the end of the essay in a reference list alphabetized by the authors\u2019 last names. Here’s an example of an acceptable reference list:<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
