• You do not need to include the full title of the reading, book, chapter, or author in your answer. For clarity, reference the authors of the readings using their last name and year of publication only. Such as “According to Huntington (2004)…” instead of “According to Samuel P. Huntington author of the 2004 The Hispanic Challenge”—both say the same thing, one in 3 words, one in 10.
