Essay 1: Some notes on formatting

Many of you have asked about how I want your first essay formatted. Here is basically what I'm looking for:

• 1" margins on all sides
• 12 point Times New Roman text
• Double spaced
• Quotations longer than 4 lines indented 1"
• Parenthetical citations in MLA style (line numbers for poems, page numbers for novels; exception: our edition of "Prufrock" doesn't have line numbers, so page numbers will have to do)
• Bibliographic citations also in MLA style, only for non-class texts

One last note: please name your paper file as follows: LastName 1.doc; for example, if I were turning in a paper I would send it as Shapiro 1.doc.
