• Resources/Works Cited: The project requires at least 6 peer-reviewed resources to substantiate the group's findings.One or two of these resources may be substituted by interviews with working Human Resources professionals. The interview notes and Q&A must be attached to the paper in an appendix and be cited properly.

• Plagiarism: Unintentional or intentional will not be tolerated. Plagiarism on any assignment may lead to in the last, penalties of a zero on the assignment and depending on the severity of the offense an F in the course and further University action.Be sure to cite all works appropriately. TheUniversity Writing center is a great resourceto utilize if you have any questions about paper structure, citations, etc.

• Additional points: This assignment is a research paper. Many times students will create and develop a 6 page opinion regarding their topic instead of a research and fact/data based project. Provide facts and cite relevant examples, but make sure you can support them with proper resources and citation.
