Extra Credit Opportunity for 2nd Quarter

Okay, this is a good one.

Write an essay on the following topic that is 750 words or fewer (excluding references and title). It must be typed, double-spaced and printed on one side of paper only. 

To what degree can it be said that the decisions of John Marshall’s Supreme Court laid the essential groundwork for establishing a strong federal government? 

Essays are due to me by 2:35 p.m. on November 5th. Students who turn in an essay on time this day will recieve between 1 and 3 points on their OVERALL second quarter grade. The number of points will depend on the quality of their submission. 

The top 5 essays will recieve the 3 points, and I will work with you to polish it for submission to this contest, if you are interested:


WIN A FABULOUS EXPERIENCE IN WASHINGTON, D.C.!

**Any essay that is not your own work will result in a deduction of a 2 points from your OVERALL quarter grade. Don't waste my time or insult my intelligence by trying to cheat.
