~in these reactions, you should identify and analyze the main themes of the readings (What are
the main concepts? Key terms and legal developments? What are the broader implications of
the reading that the author(s) identifies? If the author(s) proposes solutions, what are they?)
~make sure you write the reaction after you have read the entire reading
~this reaction should not be a list but written in prose and it should focus on specific ideas of the
author assigned; in this particular class, the legal vocabulary is very important as well
immigration consequences
~the reaction should not be considered a journal (or a rant) and you do not need to agree (or
disagree) with the author’s ideas; nor do you need to “outsmart” the author; instead, you want
to show that you know how to identify the main themes of the assigned reading; the goal is
to show you can “speak the author’s language”
~all reactions should be double-spaced, Times New Roman, with normal margins—please turn
the reaction in to D2L under “submissions” (I cannot grade any submissions using my D2L
email) 5 minutes before class (or any time before that)
~I expect there to be a learning curve—for example, I expect that if an author is difficult to
understand that by the second reading, you understand the text more (because we have gone over
it in class and you are now used to the author’s language); second, I expect you to respond to
feedback on the reaction by correcting previous errors or issues in your next submission;
revisions are allowed during the first 3 weeks of classes (with my permission) but not after week

~using quotes—this is fine, although they should be minimized in a reaction—you should
use quotation marks around the word, phrase or sentence of the author and then give the
page number in parentheses; explain all quotes and introduce them in your own words; all
terms, special words (concepts), specific facts and direct quotes should be cited with a page
number in parentheses
